[Bldg-sim] 8760 Load Profiles

[Bass Abushakra via Bldg-sim]

Bldg-Sim’ers,

I’m getting on this thread a little late and I am not sure whether this was brought up already.
I’d suggest looking at ASHRAE RP-1093 that generated typical load shapes (diversity factors) for commercial buildings.
The Final Report is available on ashrae.org.  The work was done a while ago (2000).

Thanks

Bass

One option is to use the reference building models used to test development of ASHRAE Standard 90.1 and output 8760 hour end-use data. The models by themselves do not output the 8760 data but it is a minor tweak to allow them to do that. 18 building types available in 16 climate zones.  https://www.energycodes.gov/development/commercial/prototype_models

Hello all,

We’re conducting a microgrid study for a campus-style facility and need to be able to aggregate the hourly loads of the campus buildings (various types and sizes) into a single load profile. I’m reaching out to gauge what the best sources are for typical 8,760 building load profiles (free or purchased). Ideally these would be broken out by end-use category, but that’s not a strict requirement. At a minimum, I’d need the ability to pull a unique profile based on building use type and climate zone.

Thanks,
