This guide provides information about the files generated by the CEA. The files generated by CEA are saved in the following location <SCENARIO>\outputs\data. In this folder, there are individual folders corresponding to demand, optimization, potentials, solar-radiation, uncertainty. These folders are generated during every successful run corresponding to the function, i.e. demand folder is generated when CityEnergyAnalyst\cea\demand\demand_main.py file is run.

The variable <SCENARIO> is used throughout this document to reference the path to a CEA scenario folder, e.g. the folder baseline in the sample reference case shipped with the CEA.

The variable <BUILDINGNAME> is used throughout this document to reference the name of a single building in the scenario.
