I am pretty sure that you can pick any day/period for sizing, using the sizing period objects in E+. Cannot recall off my head; so you will have to read the E+ docs yourself :-)
Apparently there are many possible explanations of why the changes in ice storage capacity were not reflected annual consumption. The best way to see if your model is working correctly or not is to look at its operation. Did you see the storage shifting cooling load in hourly results? If your HVAC is controlled by setpoints, the discomfort hours are unlikely to be affected by the system configurations...
Since you are using EMS, you can actually make E+ produce any output variables in ESO as you wish. On the other hand, to get comfort hours the easiest way is by using CSVs in RVX. See instructions here: http://www.jeplus.org/wiki/doku.php?id=d...lar_report -- Just make sure your model produce eplustbl.csv and comfort reports.
Which tool did you use to create the bar chart, by the way? EP-compare?
