The purpose of using energy simulation is to:

Calculate Title 24
Prioritize energy efficiency opportunities
Determine the sun path
Evaluate high-performance systems

Explanation

Answer - B - The purpose of using energy simulation is to prioritize energy efficiency opportunities. Energy simulation is a complex computer model that takes a calculated view of the building, as well as usage and weather patterns to determine how energy is being used, which allows efficiency priorities to be determined. Computer generated energy simulation is the key to designing cost-effective envelope and HVAC systems for buildings.
