It's probably because you set HVAC System Heating Electricity:None. That is probably why you are getting electricity_heating_kwh = 0, which for a heat pump in Detroit should probably not be happening.

When you are setting option | parameter pairs, you should make sure they are "compatible." For example, a heat pump obviously uses electricity for heating, both to power the compressor and for backup electric resistance.
