Hello,

Currently, the EnergyPlus Python API only allows interaction with the simulation as it would run when launching EnergyPlus with a command-line interface. It is not possible to skip the Warmup period.

Skipping the warmup period would require being able to save the state at the end of the warmup period and load the saved state when we want to skip it. Neither is possible.

It is a topic of an open issue on GitHub: https://github.com/NREL/EnergyPlus/issues/6533.
