Aggregate peak and off-peak energy use in custom blocks

How do I create custom blocks (based on the hour of day) to aggregate the total electricity use for any fuel use for a year?

I saw another post https://unmethours.com/question/14309/peak-monthly-electricity-demand-in-energyplus/ by @_AmirRoth_ that uses Ruby to get this done (I am not familiar with Ruby). I do have the peak and off-peak schedules defined based on hours. Can these be used to create custom meters and then splitting the Electricity:Facility in corresponding blocks using EMS or SQL?
