After trying a number of programs (EnergyPlus, BCTV, etc) I find it amazing that there isn't an easier way to generate <b>"Real Time Load Profiles". </b><div><br></div><div><div>I see that these programs, namely EnergyPlus, can "describe" an load profile of a device. </div>
<div>But I really just want CSV files with these 2 columns: </div><div><br></div><div><b>Time (in seconds), Power (average)</b></div></div><div><br></div><div>The Smart Grid is about making energy decisions in real-time. </div>
<div>Does anyone know how to make these programs output CSV files for researchers like me? <br></div><div><br></div><div>Your advice? </div><div>--Jake </div>
