EnergyPlus 23.1.0

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has released EnergyPlus version 23.1.0. There were many bug fixes and prominent new features this release. The full changelog for this release cycle is listed below. For more information about EnergyPlus, please visit www.energyplus.net.

Key notes

  • If you are thinking about including EnergyPlus as a part of a larger build, we have started exporting our CMake targets to make it easier to find the CMake pieces you need, see PR #9712
  • Pull request #9727 fixed a bug that, in a small corner case, could cause notable differences in results (for the better!) between 22.2 and 23.1
  • This will be the last release for Ubuntu 18.04, and probably the last 32-bit Windows release as well.

Supported Platforms

  • Windows 10 and 11: 32 and 64-bit versions
  • Linux (Ubuntu 18.04, 20.04, 22.04) 64 bit versions
  • Mac OSX 10.15, 11, and 12 64 bit versions
