The EnergyPlus Weather Utility that is installed when you install EnergyPlus reads and translates TMY2, WYEC2 (Weather Year for Energy Calculations), IWEC (new International Weather for Energy Calculations format from ASHRAE), Comma-Separated-Value (CSV) files, as well as ESP-r, DOE-2 and BLAST weather text format files into the EnergyPlus weather format. More information about the sources of weather data is available on the the Weather Data Sources page.
