The continuous expansion in modern building effects the consumption of energy directly. Specially, in growing countries like Pakistan this expansion becomes more evident. Due to high growth rate, there is a major need of hospitals, industries, educational buildings and IT parks thus, increasing the carbon emission and energy consumption, specifically electrical energy consumption. Several techniques were implemented by different organizations to reduce energy consumption. This research investigates time pack of face change materials online energy consumption of an industrial building located in Sialkot, Pakistan. The study utilizes building energy simulation software, DesignBuilder, to model the building and assess its energy consumption under present climate conditions. The research findings reveal that the implementation of energy efficient techniques (EETs) has a significant influence on the energy utilization of industrial buildings. The application of EETs resulted in a remarkable reduction up to 20-30% in the total energy consumption of the building. Furthermore, the heating and cooling demand during winter and summer was reduced to approximately 10-20%. These findings highlight the positive impact of EETs on energy efficiency in industrial buildings, presenting an opportunity for sustainable energy savings and environmental benefits. The results of this research contribute to the body of knowledge on sustainable building design and provide valuable insight for architects, engineers, and building owners seeking effective strategies to optimize energy performance and mitigate climate impact.
