heating meter all fuels

Hello All, I am trying to simulate a bunch of buildings in PAT and extract the heating: electricity or heating:gas from them. However, I am not aware which of those buildings have gas and which ones have electricity. To overcome the problem is there a heating meter that is fuel agnostic and can give heating values for any fuel? I tried using heating variables from rdd file namely heating rate and heating energy but somehow they sum up to a value greater than heating:electricity for the same building. Same is the case with Heating:energy transfer meter. Is there any other meter that I am missing?

Thanks all
