Reasons for heating demand are higher than cooling demand, if cooling consumption is higher

I'm creating an Airloop in OpenStudio and the Electric Demand for heating is higher than that for cooling, and the Electric Energy Use from cooling is much higher than that of heating. I would like to know what could be influencing these values. Below are the simulation results.

Heating -- Not Subdivided : 57.37 GJ (Electric Energy Use) /// 23978.45 W (Electric Demand)
Cooling -- General: 128.02 GJ (Electric Energy Use) /// 14370.56 W (Electric Demand)
