Each file is named using the ISO standard three-letter country abbreviation (i.e. CUB for Cuba), followed by the location name, World Meteorological Organization designation (WMO) and the source format (CTZ2, CWEC, CityUHK, CSWD, CTYW, ETMY, IGDG, IMGW, IMS, INETI, ISHRAE, ITMY, IWEC, KISR, NIWA, RMY, SWEC, SWERA, or TMY3). Thus,

CUB_Havana.782240_IWEC.epw — is the EnergyPlus weather file (EPW) from the ASHRAE International Weather for Energy Calculations (IWEC) data for Havana, Cuba, WMO 782240.

There are three files associated with each location: EnergyPlus weather files (EPW), a summary report on the data (STAT), and a compressed file (ZIP) which contains the EPW, STAT, and DDY (design conditions) files for the location. Note: all IWEC files only have STAT and ZIP files.

Viewing Instructions

You can view the individual EPW and STAT files by clicking on one of the buttons above.

Download Instructions

For a specific location, you can download either

  • Individual weather data files (EPW format) or a data summary report (STAT format). File sizes range from 0.9 - 1.4 MB.
    or
  • A ZIP file containing both weather data and summary report, EPW, and STAT formats. Files sizes range from 190 - 250 KB.

Note to Netscape users: Because Netscape may not always provide a clean download of the individual files, we recommend that you download the ZIP file for the particular location.
