Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Annual Peak cooling variable ?

[Jeremiah Crossett <jcrossett@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The reason to add this as a feature is not for my project, but because it would be useful to be able to use the peak high/low values rather then annual hourly average for all users who do parametric or optimisation runs with objective functions of minimizing cooling or heating capacity.

The goal of the study is to optimize the envelope to minimize cooling load so that it is close to or below this value.
