Abstract
Nowadays, global energy scenario is faced with the loss of fossil fuel resources, strongly, and in other hand climate changes caused by fossil fuel consumption has become a concerning problem. This reality needs a new attitude into the using of the renewable energies as much as possible. Since the buildings consume thirty-six percent of the total global energy consumption, zero energy building approach is a vital matter in modern world. The optimization of the zero energy building with aiming at various objectives, can improve the building performance. In this paper, a review was carried out on various optimization methods for zero energy buildings, and these methods were presented in three groups: meta-heuristic algorithm, mathematical methods, and simulation-based methods. The meta-heuristic algorithms because of their algorithmic structure to achieve the certain objectives, were studied in single-objective and multi-objective processes. The non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm as one of the best methods was selected. The procedures of the mathematical methods were explained, in detail. Finally in the simulation-based optimization chapter, the optimization methods were studied in two sections of the minimizing the cost, and minimizing the thermal and cooling loads.
