Residential construction is a very energy-intensive industry. With population expansion and an increase in homeownership, the impact is certain to deteriorate. A wave of green and sustainable initiatives is gaining traction in an attempt to mitigate some of the environment's negative consequences. The building sector is always developing toward greater energy efficiency. However, one of the most significant impediments is a lack of information and concern of upfront expenses among contractors, homeowners, and customers alike. The goal of this study is to determine the utility of existing Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) processes as a tool for evaluating green building strategies by performing energy simulations for various energy saving measures (ECMs). The purpose of this article is to quantify the trade-off between initial expenditure and long-term benefits associated with various energy saving techniques. We built energy simulation models and life cycle cost models. The created models were used to a scenario involving an apartment in a multi-family structure. This study demonstrates that a mix of passive and active energy saving techniques resulted in the lowest total cost of ownership. The findings indicate a 13.5 percent cost savings when a mix of passive design and active methods is used.
