Hi everyone,

I'm encountering an issue with OpenStudio 3.7.0 where default Output:Meter are (I suppose) added by default to the model just before simulation starts, despite my attempts to disable them using a custom measure. Specifically, I'm interested in suppressing these meters from appearing in the "timestep" frequency report (Electricity:Facility, NaturalGas:Facility, DistrictCooling:Facility, etc.)

If I'm not wrong, I think this is a default behavior by OpenStudio, but we are working with huge URBANopt models and this kind of timestep outputs are so time and resources consuming when applied to an urban area simulation.

Could someone please advise if there's a method or workaround to achieve this? Any insights or alternative approaches would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
