- Abstract
This paper discusses the development and integration of advanced Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) into EnergyPlus, a widely used building energy simulation software. The APIs, including functional, runtime, and data exchange categories, enable enhanced inter- action with EnergyPlus simulations through external scripting and real-time data exchange. These enhancements broaden EnergyPlus’ utility by facilitating complex control strategies, dynamic data integration, and interoperability with external tools and frameworks, thus advancing its capabilities in building energy performance analysis and simulation.
