Abstract
The purpose of this thesis is to highlight the effect of using BIM through design possibilities regarding the solar technologies for sustainable design with emphasis on building integrated photovoltaic system using solar energy to generate electricity. Thesis methodology is based on a literature review of the last decade researches in Sustainable BIM integration by using BIM tools for BPS process with the emphasis of BIPV energy simulation. The Literature review revealed that integrating BIM in sustainable design done through IFC and gbXML open BIM formats which have a lot of interoperability issues while exporting BIM models to building performance analysis tools.The objective of the thesis is to integrate BIM in sustainable design using BPS BIM-based tools and avoiding the mentioned interoperability issues faced the users in the last decade. In order to accomplish this objective, we have used the same platform BPS BIM-based tools to avoid interoperability issues while exporting models to the open BIM formats such as IFC. The results accentuate that using same platform tools avoid all interoperability issues and achieves seamless BIPV simulation
