v1.6
- Two new applications have been added: QuESt Performance and QuESt Technology Selection
QuESt Performance
An application for analyzing battery energy storage system performance due to parasitic heating, ventilation, and air conditioning loads. This tool leverages the building simulation tool EnergyPlus to model the energy consumption of a particular battery housing.
QuESt Technology Selection
An application for identifying the energy storage technologies most suitable for a given project. This tool is based on multiple parameters that characterize each storage technology; the technologies that do not satisfy the minimum application requirements are filtered out and the remaining technologies are ranked to indicate their compatibility to the desired project.
- NSRDB weather data can now be accessed using QuESt Data Manager
