Happy New Year from the Chicago Chapter of IBPSA-USA! We will be hosting a free webinar on January 21, 2016 on the topic of Weather Data for Energy Modeling.

The webinar will begin at 11:00am and go until approximately 1pm (CST).
Every energy model depends on good, accurate weather data. This webinar will offer presentations from three experts to discuss:
* How weather data files are developed
* TMY (Typical Meteorological Year) data vs. AMY (Actual Meteorological Year) data
* Confidence vs. skepticism in weather data
* Customizing weather data for locations or microclimates
* Selecting and using the "right" weather data file
* Future climate impacts and weather models
* Demonstration of Elements software application from Big Ladder Software and Rocky Mountain Institute (http://bigladdersoftware.com/projects/elements/)
Our presenters will be:
* Joe Huang, White Box Technologies
* Michael O'Keefe, Big Ladder Software
* Ben Brannon, ARUP
There will be time for Q&A with each presenter.
The webinar will be recorded for later viewing, and posted at www.ibpsa.us
