Hi Grant,

eQUEST, along with several other commonly used building energy modeling
tools, received DOE funding through the two rounds of the Resilient and
Efficient Code Implementation (RECI) initiative (RECI1
<https://www.energy.gov/eere/buildings/articles/meet-btos-newest-projects-support-more-resilient-and-efficient-building>,
RECI2
<https://www.energy.gov/eere/buildings/articles/meet-btos-2024-cohort-projects-support-more-resilient-and-efficient>).
The funded scope includes streamlining and automating 90.1 Appendix G
modeling and model reviews and a few other upgrades. So I am glad that
modeling pros like Bill keep eQUEST wish lists :-).

Thanks,

Maria
