Energy consumption in buildings has always been a topic of concern for people and all institutions in the world. The need to pay attention to this issue is due to high energy consumption and significant energy losses in them. The purpose of this study is to calculate the energy consumption of a The educational building and obtaining the amount of energy losses and finally providing a solution to improve energy consumption and reduce it. In line with this purpose, energy audits are used. Finally, suggestions for reducing energy consumption are presented according to the points where losses occur. To build the building, Design Builder software is used and for its energy audit calculations, the relationships between the energy consumption guidelines and the energy label of the National Standards Organization are used. Most of the losses occur from doors, windows and thermal bridges, and by defining three scenarios and implementing them in the building, energy consumption is improved and losses are reduced. Finally, it can be seen that the loss rate is reduced by about 40% and the comfort temperature of the building changes to 20 ° C.
