Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Is there a way to convert the output meter units from Joule to kWh?



You can select to convert to Ip in Ep launch, it then either therms for gas or kWh for electricity.

For the Eplusout.html, you can switch with output:Table:Style object and set Unit Conversion to JtoKW (or any of the others including InchPound).

For the Output:Variable stuff, there's no option that I know of that will do it for you... You'll have divide by 3600000 as Jim pointed out. If you want "automatic", you'll have to write a preprocessing script;

What matters more to one’s happiness than getting more freedom and power is the end toward which we order whatever freedom and power we have. Unless we order ourselves to the truth, more freedom and more power will bring only more unhappiness, examples of which abound.
