[BLDG-SIM] Weather Normalization?

[Mike Tillou]

The simplist way to compare a collection of energy consumption from
different climates is to normalize using Heating or Cooling Degree Days.
This can be done in excel and you can get HDD/CDD data from any number
of sources online.

	I'm trying to find a way to normalize a collection of energy
consumptions of similar buildings in different climates to help compare
energy performances. Has anyone done this before? And if so, can this be
accomplished in excel, or some other software application? Thank you in
advance for any help.

	Mike
