This thesis consists of a detailed review of energy modeling process with the use of Autodesk Revit software. In the process, a complex building was evaluated, and three variations of relevant building technical systems were proposed. Predicted yearly energy use of the building was calculated and compared using both dynamic hourly and monthly calculation method. Predicted yearly building energy use according to the hourly calculation method is 67 ▫$kWh/m^2an$▫, while monthly calculations using official calculation tool PURES 3 show the yearly building energy use of 177 ▫$kWh/m^2an$▫. Positive and negative aspects of the used calculation tools are evaluated in the thesis. Use of energy evaluation package included in Revit showed to be most appropriate for early-stage design, while it fails to provide adequate functions for further detailed mechanical analysis.
