However, starting in 2004, the California Energy Commission has been evaluating the possible use of EnergyPlus as the reference program in future revisions of Title-24. As part of this evaluation, the authors converted the Alternate Compliance Method (ACM) certification test suite of 150 &lt;em&gt;DOE-2&lt;/em&gt; files to &lt;em&gt;EnergyPlus&lt;/em&gt;, and made parallel &lt;em&gt;DOE-2&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;EnergyPlus&lt;/em&gt; runs for this extensive set of test cases. A customized version of &lt;em&gt;DOE-2.1E&lt;/em&gt; named doe2ep was developed to automate the conversion process. This paper describes this conversion process, including the difficulties in establishing an apples-to-apples comparison between the two programs, and summarizes how the &lt;em&gt;DOE-2&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;EnergyPlus&lt;/em&gt; results compare for the ACM test cases.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><call-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LBNL-61527</style></call-num><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Simulation Research Group&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom1><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LBNL-61527</style></custom2></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Birdsall, Bruce E.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Walter F.
