- `ERICalculation/Version` and `CO2IndexCalculation/Version` can now be "2022C" or "2022".
- Allows modeling electric battery storage, including shared batteries ("2022C" or newer).
- The `ElectricAuxiliaryEnergy` input for boilers is no longer used.
- **Breaking change**: ERI_Results.csv and ERI_Worksheet.csv combined into a single ERI_Results.csv that better reflects the current ERI calculation components; additional fields (e.g., PEfrac) added and a few renamed/removed.
- **Breaking change**: Each `VentilationFan` must have one (and only one) `UsedFor...` element set to true.
- Ground source heat pump model enhancements.
- Allows `Roof/RadiantBarrier` to be omitted; defaults to false.

.. _co2e_results_csv:

CO2e_Results.csv
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A ``CO2e_Results.csv`` file will be produced when using ANSI/RESNET/ICC 301-2019 Addendum D or newer.
The file includes all of the outputs that are used in the CO2e Index calculation.
A ``CO2e_Results.csv`` file will be produced when requesting the CO2IndexCalculation; see :ref:`hpxml_calculations`.
Refer to the ANSI 301 Standard for details on how the CO2e Rating Index is calculated.

.. _eri_results_csv:

ERI_Results.csv
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ``ERI_Results.csv`` file includes the ERI result as well as the high-level components (e.g., REUL, EC_r, EC_x, IAD_Save) that comprise the ERI calculation.
The file reflects the format of the Results tab of the HERS Method Test spreadsheet.

Note that multiple comma-separated values will be reported for many of these outputs if there are multiple heating, cooling, or hot water systems.

.. _eri_worksheet_csv:

ERI_Worksheet.csv
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ``ERI_Worksheet.csv`` file includes more detailed components that feed into the ERI_Results.csv values.
The file reflects the format of the Worksheet tab of the HERS Method Test spreadsheet.

Note that multiple comma-separated values will be reported for many of these outputs if there are multiple heating, cooling, or hot water systems.
A ``ERI_Results.csv`` (and/or ``IECC_ERI_Results.csv``) file will be produced when requesting the ERICalculation (and/or IECCERICalculation); see :ref:`hpxml_calculations`.
Refer to the ANSI 301 Standard for details on how the Energy Rating Index is calculated.
