When I run Energy Plus idf file (using EP launch) I only can get monthly electricity and gas consumption data, while I need hourly data, instead of monthly. Is there any way to get hourly results from Energy Plus?

The monthly electricity consumption profile for the facility is as below. Is there any way to get hourly data instead of monthly?

          Electricity (kWh)

For building energy use, your EnergyPlus file needs Output:Meter objects like: Output:Meter,Electricity:Facility,hourly;

Output:Meter,NaturalGas:Facility,hourly;

Output:Meter,InteriorLights:Electricity,hourly;

Output:Meter,Heating:Electricity,hourly;

Output:Meter,Cooling:Electricity,hourly;

Output:Meter,Fans:Electricity;

Output:Meter,InteriorEquipment:Electricity;

You may also wish to add Output:Variable objects for reporting other information.
