Abstract
This study aims to assess the potential environmental and economic benefits of retrofitting a residential archetype building under different scenarios. The study uses life cycle performance approaches to carry on a retrofitting scenario for an attached villa archetype in new cities in Egypt. After identifying three levels of energy retrofit measures (ERMs), a multi-objective optimisation framework was developed and carried out upon the case study model to optimise the Life Cycle Cost (LCC) and the Life Cycle Carbon Footprint (LCCF). The results of the study presented 4 different retrofitting scenarios with various investment costs and significantly improved operational costs and emissions.
