[Equest-users] equest and daylighting

[Seaman, Ethan]

Matthew, you’re correct – eQuest has the ability to set up daylight sensors in spaces but doesn’t have the capability to verify compliance for LEED’s IEQ Daylight credit.

Konstantina, for this I’d recommend a software the uses the Radiance simulation engine.

Hi,
You are able to model daylighting there is a link to a tutorial below. The only thing, if I remember correctly, is the required documentation needed for the LEED credit may not be able to be output from eQuest.

Hello to all equest users,
I am working on an energy model for LEED.

I was wondering, is it possible to make daylighting calculations with e-quest?

Thank you
