OpenStudio-ERI version 1.4.4 has been released. The OpenStudio-ERI workflow calculates an Energy Rating Index (ERI) using the Department of Energy's OpenStudio/EnergyPlus building simulation platform. The open-source workflow is intended to be used by residential software tools that provide a HPXML building description file.

Two packages are available, a minimal zip with a handful of weather files and a full zip with all US TMY3 weather files. OpenStudio-ERI v1.4.4 uses OpenStudio v3.4.0, EnergyPlus v22.1.0, and a proposed HPXML v4.0. Please visit the OpenStudio-ERI v1.4.4 documentation for instructions on how to get started, how to connect software tools to the workflow, etc.
