description | The current study analyzes historic educational buildings to discover the optimum combination of improvements for optimal energy cost. The analysis was conducted using BIM technology and associated programs such as Auto Desk Revit 2020 and Auto Desk Insight 360 to determine the optimal strategies by which the most applicable alternative construction materials and procedures are considered to obtain environmentally and economically sustainable old educational buildings. The analysis showed that several approaches may reduce the cost of electrical energy usage and generator fuel in aged schools. Optimal changes lead to such reductions. Altering wall and roof materials minimizes electrical energy usage. The findings reveal that altering the lighting efficiency (0.3 W/sf) in the best way decreases the cost of electrical energy consumption by about 65,575,500 Iraqi Dinars (ID), and reduces the cost of fuel energy consumption by approximately 510,000 ID.
