objectives
​
(1) Investigate the relationship between lifecycle cost (LCC), total energy consumption, lifecycle assessment (LCA), and the thermal comfort of school buildings.
(2) Identify the optimal energy retrofit packages for school buildings, based on the trade-off among different performance indicators.
A simulation-based multi-objective optimisation (SBMO) framework will be adopted to achieve the objectives. The research results can support decision-making by providing scientific knowledge and best practices for the energy retrofit of school buildings. By improving energy efficiency, the research can also contribute to achieving the 2050 net-zero carbon emission target.
