The EnergyPlus team can provide weather files created using
Meteonorm.  These are posted on the EnergyPlus YahooGroup under
Files > Meteonorm_Weather_Files.

Locations are listed alphabetically by country.  More than 100
locations are currently available--look there first before asking for a
new weather file.
 
Information on selecting weather data is described in this paper: 
Drury B. Crawley. 1998. "Which Weather Data Should You Use for
Energy Simulations of Commercial Buildings?" in ASHRAE Transactions,
pp. 498-515, Vol. 104, Pt. 2. Atlanta: ASHRAE. (PDF 197 KB)

Requesting Meteonorm Weather Data for Your Location. Send the
information either to this group or to the helpdesk
(energyplus-support@xxxxxxxx)

You will need to supply:

Name of Location (including country)
Latitude (N+/S-)(decimal format preferred)
Longitude (E+/W-)(decimal format preferred)
Time Zone (+/- GMT)
Elevation (meters)

For convenience, you can convert lat/long in degrees minutes seconds to
the decimal format by visiting this web link:

http://www.fcc.gov/mb/audio/bickel/DDDMMSS-decimal.html

And you should be aware of Meteonorm limitations.  (see files
area for full readme)

And yes, the weather converter can save as an EcoTect file (.wea)
