…d on some discussions with Joe. Still need to connect the EMS sensor for WH outlet temperature.

Right now, this method calculates:
Unmet shower energy I feel is the most complete metric, since it accounts for how far off from the desired temperature you are. However, no one really has a sense for if say 2 kWh of unmet showers is too many, so this way you can calculate the % of shower time where loads are unmet. We could also add metrics related to ALL hot water usage, or all fixtures. We'd want to account for the different desired delivered temperature for appliances, but it wouldn't be hard to add metrics like Unmet Energy for all fixtures. |

Some comments while I think of it. Addressing these comments will make it easier to pull in the master branch.

@shorowit: I just did a major refactor of this, no more duplicate code. Thanks for the suggestions. It'd be good to know if you think this is a decent way to organize things at a minimum if/when you have a chance to take a look, we're looking to use this with the 120 V HPWH relatively soon. |

Pull Request Description
Add an EMS program for calculating unmet water heating loads. Focus is on unmet showers, but we can also calculate this for each end use if we wanted to. Addresses #1170.
