“…However, the cost-optimum solutions to minimise the environmental impact and to maximise the energy performance of residential buildings are different in buildings located in different climates, as the climate conditions have a significant impact on the overall optimum energy efficiency measures, such as optimum thermal insulation thickness of the building envelope or technical performance features of the building services systems. Several recent studies have been conducted to determine the energy saving and environmental impact reduction potential of existing apartment buildings located in cold climate conditions [15][16][17][18][19][20]. The studies have concluded that an essential aspect of economically viable renovation solutions is to combine the energy performance improving measures with the mandatory maintenance repairs.…”

The paper presents cost-optimal energy performance improving measures conducted in deep renovations of typical Finnish (cold climate) brick apartment buildings, built in the 1960's. The study discusses the effects of different renovation measures on the energy performance and economic viability in a selected building. Energy performance is studied from the primary energy consumption's perspective and cost-effective renovation measures to meet higher energy performance criteria are also studied. The cost-optimal renovation concepts to meet different energy performance criteria were determined from over 2 billion potential renovation measure combinations by using sophisticated simulationbased multi-objective optimisation (SBMOO) analysis, utilising the advanced Pareto-Archive NSGA-II genetic algorithm, as the main research method. The SBMOO analysis was used to minimise the primary energy consumption and the net present value of life-cycle cost over a 25-year discount period simultaneously. The results indicate that the cost optimum renovation solutions of the brick apartment building stock provide the same energy performance criteria as the current national minimum energy performance requirements of new apartment buildings. According to the study, the investments should be focused on high performance renewable energy production systems, which deliver the best return on investment. External financial support mechanisms are also required to encourage apartment building owners to conduct deep renovations towards nearly zero-energy apartment buildings.

“…Studying the energy consumption reduction on a large scale is a relatively new focus area: the first published study on energy retrofit on the district level was found in 2008 by [58]. Since then, several large-scale studies have been published, such as Moscow's residential district renovation impact on energy and emissions [59]. Easy-to-use evaluation and analysis frameworks and tools help to promote the adoption of large-scale energy renovation planning and implementation.…”

Optimal Renovation Strategies for Education Buildings—A Novel BIM–BPM–BEM Framework

The aim of this paper is to propose a novel building information model (BIM)–building performance model (BPM)–building environmental model (BEM) framework to identify the most energy-efficient and cost-effective strategies for the renovation of existing education buildings to achieve the nearly zero-energy goal while minimizing the environmental impact. A case building, the University of Maryland’s Architecture Building, was used to demonstrate the validity of the framework and a set of building performance indicators—including energy performance, environmental impacts, and occupant satisfaction—were used to evaluate renovation strategies. Additionally, this novel framework further demonstrated the interoperability among different digital tools and platforms. Lastly, following a detailed analysis and measurements, the case study results highlighted a particular energy profile as well as the retrofit needs of education buildings. Eight different renovation packages were analyzed with the top-ranking package indicating an energy saving of 62%, carbon emissions reduction of 84%, and long-term cost savings of 53%, albeit with a relatively high initial cost. The most preferable package ranked second in all categories, with a moderate initial cost.
