    Hi everyone,

    I have been experiencing issues with seeing certain results LEAP. I modelled the transport sector from the leap exercise two, however when I view results, I have nothing showing under passenger transport (everything is recorded as zero's yet I have all the information in the analysis and the freight data shows). Do you know what the issue here could be?

    A similar happened in previous exercises were I input data in 'analysis' for the electricity data for Industry, but in my 'results', it was all 0.0 yet I can see the electricity information added and saved in my analysis dashboard.

    Please help :)

    Hi Amanda,

    Three things to check. The first two are probably too obvious, but the third can trip people up..

    The first two are simply to check that all your relevant energy intensities and activity levels are non-zero. Since ALL you energy consumption under transport is zero, I'm going to guess that the issue is high up in the tree - perhaps a zero where the transport branch is. Bear in mind that the LEAP demand calculations are very simply in principle: it just multiples down through the branches of the tree to get the activity levels and then multiplies those by the energy intensities.

    The third possibility is that you have entered the data correctly but your units are off. Perhaps by thousands or even millions. I notice that your have zero values showing (not dashes). And that sometimes indicates that there are results, but they are just too small to see. You can test this out by increasing the number of decimals to see if very tiny values emerge. When debugging in LEAP I always tell people that it pays to question the zeros!

    I hope this helps. Let me know how you get on!
