I want to optimize the hourly temperature thermostat setpoints of an EnergyPlus idf model given a price of electricity at each hour. In other words, the goal is to minimize the cost of electricity by adjusting the setpoint temperatures at each hour.

Is this possible using GenOpt or something like that? I've been looking into GenOpt but can't seem to do optimization of hourly variables.variables.
