[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Cooling loads in kwh

["L Lawrie" <linda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Energy in EnergyPlus is produced in joules.

The standard unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI) is the joule (J), equal to one watt second. Inversely, one watt is equal to 1 J/s. One kilowatt hour is 3.6 megajoules, which is the amount of energy expended (or dissipated) if work is done at a constant rate of one thousand watts for one hour.

If you are displaying the tabular reports, look at Output:Table:Style -- one of the fields will allow you to display the energy values in kwh
