Abstract

An effective method of optimizing building energy performance through simulation is introduced in this study. The Modified Satin Bowerbird Optimization Algorithm and the DesignBuilder simulation tools are used to find optimal solutions for improving building energy efficiency. Five distinct climatic zones of China are examined in terms of decision variables including window size, overhang characteristics, and building orientation. The objective functions are based on the energy demand for lighting and cooling over a year. Analyses of optimization employing either a single-criterion or a multi-criteria approach delve into the interactions between these functions. According to the results, buildings had a reduction of 24.0 %–42.7 % in their overall yearly energy consumption. 22.9 %, 24.0 %, 35.1 %, 37.2 %, and 42.7 % yearly overall energy consumption reduction are specific to Harbin, Beijing, Guangzhou, Shanghai, and Kunming, respectively. Under varying weather conditions, architectural decision variables have a significant impact on energy consumption.
