I have a working model built from some EnergyPlus example files.

In my PlantLoop for heating I have a Storage Tank for preheating, and a WaterHeater:Mixed to provide additional heat. I want to compare this scenario with my baseline scenario, in which I have a Boiler:HotWater for heating.

For this purpose I'm trying to replace the WaterHeater by a Boiler. However, I can't get this to work. I suspect some issue with setpoints, since there is flow through the Boiler, it just doesn't heat. Also, the WaterHeater has a field called Setpoint Temperature Schedule Name, whereas the Boiler doesn't.

I tried fiddling around with the setpoints. Also I've moved the Boiler to the same branch as the Storage Tank, without result.

How can I get my Boiler to heat to 50 °C?

The problem is with the the second loop in this HVAC system diagram.
