Hello, We just fitted a daily model, and the graph shows both red and green lines. What do these different colored lines mean?

OK, thank you very much for clearing that up. ----- Si Chen Open Source Strategies, Inc. Our Mission: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uc7lmvnuJHY

Definitely, for buildings with multiple meters, there should be a separate model for each meter. It is important to use different parameters for gas and electricity, as you read in the CalTRACK

Hello, What do you recommend when a building has gas and electric meters? I read on https://github.com/openeemeter/eemeter/blob/fc91df2b5fa69125a85b1235d24783c350d5b99a/docs/caltrack_compliance.rst:

Sure. But maybe use the opentaps.org/forum -- It might be off topic for OpenEEMeter? ----- Si Chen Open Source Strategies, Inc. opentaps in 1 minute: https://youtu.be/r0AY2P738QY

So glad to see you've built this (and that I won't need to duplicate the work). Can I share a few use cases and see if you think opentaps fills the needs described (or will shortly)? -- System Smart

That would be great! Please let me know if you need anything else from me for that. ----- Si Chen Open Source Strategies, Inc. opentaps in 1 minute: https://youtu.be/r0AY2P738QY

Great work Si and OpenTaps team! This is very exciting. A hearty thank you to you and your team for the contributions back to the OpenEEmeter library along the way. I am looking forward to seeing what

Hello everybody, It's done! Please take a look at https://opentaps.org/2020/01/30/green-button-xml-openeemeter-added-opentaps-mv/ and let us know your thoughts and suggestions.

Do you feel a virtual meter would not be accurate enough? Would this be something that the CalTrack group has or should be researching? ----- Si Chen Open Source Strategies,

Correct, but not with a virtual meter. Best to use a submetering device like this: https://efergy.com/engage-sub-metering-kit/ The three CalTRACK methods (monthly, daily & hourly) can produce

Interesting. Do you mean comparing the model's cooling energy versus actual energy use of the equipment, for example with a virtual meter? ----- Si Chen Open Source Strategies,

To determine efficiency you also need to know the amount of conditioned space. My intent is more to determine the accuracy of results against something that can be measured (like actual cooling

Interesting. I've been curious about what else besides M&V the CalTrack models could be used for. For example if you had heating, cooling, and baseload parameters, could you use that to compare

The hourly models don't provide as straight-foward a means of disaggregation, as they construct separate model parameters for different temperature bins. So unlike the daily models where there is a

Thanks for letting us know. Yes, I agree it would be nice to get energy use by category, but how do we get that information? ----- Si Chen Open Source Strategies, Inc. https://youtu.be/SGp-LwBLais

Just my opinion, but I think a chart showing the hourly energy usage in three categories (base, heating, cooling) would be more useful than all the different model parameters. -Steve

Glad to hear it! Unfortunately, I haven't yet had the chance to build visualizations for the hourly model. There are a few challenges that make this a little harder than with the daily models. 1)

Hello, We're almost done with our openeemeter integration. We were able to generate a nice plot of the daily model based on the tutorial. Is it possible also to generate a plot of the hourly model?

Thanks! This makes sense -- The model is built up until the start of the black out period, and then run starting from the end of the black out period. ----- Si Chen Open Source Strategies,
