No, it doesn't appear that there is an input for electric resistance heating for the SolarCollector:IntegralCollectorStorage object or its companion SolarCollectorPerformance:IntegralCollectorStorage object. If you wanted to account for electric resistance heating, you could add a water heater storage tank in parallel with the integral solar collector. This parallel water heater would provide electric resistance backup heating for the integral solar collector.
