Heat rejection end use for cooling towers

In Openstudio, when you set up a chiller plant from a template and simulate, there is a quantity for heat rejection in the EnergyPlus output report. I assume this is heat rejection from the cooling tower.

If you use a similar cooling tower with say a series of water side heat pumps on the same building, a value of zero is in this end use category (heat rejection) in the output reports for EnergyPlus. Is this correct?
