Revision history [back]

The BEopt IDF file can be found by going to the Tools > Open Data Dir menu after running simulations. If you just ran a large analysis (e.g., an optimization), then BEopt will not store every input/output file because that would take a lot of space, so you can regenerate the input file for any building by selecting the point in the output graph and going to the Tools > Generate Simulation Input Files menu.

Note that BEopt v2.8 is running EnergyPlus 8.8. A new release of BEopt (v3) will be coming out in a couple months that will be connected to the latest EnergyPlus 22.2.
