Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: A new tool for creating real-time weather files





Realy, sorry about that- I thought there was hourly data in one of the datasets.  

Not sure if you have allready seen these or if they provide the required hourly data but how about any of these links:

FYI, the EnergyPlus Weather Converter will make up solar from input parameters.  It will do a better job if there is Global Solar provided (such as on the NREL real time weather data).
