Energy Plus CSV from PAT

I am trying to run multiple buildings using PAT and need to gather some building characteristics from the simulations. My earlier plan was to export those building characteristics through an export variable, however the export variable does not seem to have those listed. Consequently, I planned on using the Energy Plus tables csv from data_point.zip files to parse the results, however surprisingly PAT-OpenStudio-E+ combination do not export csv copy of E+tables. Is there a way to activate this feature and have the PAT simulation export E+ csv results? I am looking for static building characteristics that do not vary over 8760 hours and hence addmeter and addoutputvariable are probably out of the ballpark. Appreciate any help and pointers in this regard. Thanks
