Beopt v3 bess modeling

Hello,

I've been trying to model a PV (4.5 kWh) + BESS (10 kWh) system in the recent beta3.0 version of BEOpt, which was supposed to have improved modeling features for hybrid/integrated systems. However, after doing some post-processing the data obtained is not showing a reasonable hybrid/integrated PV+BESS model. I've extracted the hourly outputs into an excel sheet and tried to calculate the cumulative battery capacity values to understand its working characteristics. The cumulative battery capacity values look fine up to a certain extent, however as time passes, the battery starts accumulating values greater than 10 kWh (beyond its selected capacity) and end up reaching 147.72 kWh to the end of the year.
