The output variables are specific to the model used in your inputs. To see all available reports at this to your input file:
Output:VariableDictionary, IDF;
Then run your simulation and find the eplusout.rdd (report data dictionary) file. Choose the report from those available and copy-n-paste directly into your input file.
A few examples from the beginning of this file are:
! Program Version,EnergyPlus, Version 9.5.0-e816786023, YMD=2021.05.18 21:02,
! Output:Variable Objects (applicable to this run)
Output:Variable,*,Site Outdoor Air Drybulb Temperature,hourly; !- Zone Average [C]
Output:Variable,*,Site Outdoor Air Dewpoint Temperature,hourly; !- Zone Average [C]
Output:Variable,*,Site Outdoor Air Wetbulb Temperature,hourly; !- Zone Average [C]
Output:Variable,*,Site Outdoor Air Humidity Ratio,hourly; !- Zone Average [kgWater/kgDryAir]
Output:Variable,*,Site Outdoor Air Relative Humidity,hourly; !- Zone Average [%]
Output:Variable,*,Site Outdoor Air Barometric Pressure,hourly; !- Zone Average [Pa]
Output:Variable,*,Site Wind Speed,hourly; !- Zone Average [m/s]
Output:Variable,*,Site Wind Direction,hourly; !- Zone Average [deg]
Output:Variable,*,Site Sky Temperature,hourly; !- Zone Average [C]
Output:Variable,*,Site Horizontal Infrared Radiation Rate per Area,hourly; !- Zone Average [W/m2]
Output:Variable,*,Site Diffuse Solar Radiation Rate per Area,hourly; !- Zone Average [W/m2]
Output:Variable,*,Site Direct Solar Radiation Rate per Area,hourly; !- Zone Average [W/m2]
Also review the InputOutputReference.pdf doc for Output:Variable and see some of the example files to get used to the syntax.
