    "hc": "winter" (still have to figure that out) -> hier könnte Nebenverbrauch berechnet werden
}

" -> gc_power = number_cs * cs_power (no seperate input parameter. Or is it needed?)"

Are there maybe cases where gc power is smaller than the sum of all cs power stations?

I don't think there is. Why would someone install charging stations if the gc is not sufficient. But we can also add another parameter, if needed. @j-brendel , what do you prefer?

[j-brendel]

Hej,
Indeed there are those cases. The GC is not always desinged to be operated wiht a Gleichzeitigkeitsfaktor of 1. So
gc_power = number_cs * cs_power * Gleichzeitigkeitsfaktor
Hence I would like to have gc_power as individual input parameter.
