Abstract

Life cycle cost analysis (LCCA) is an economic method used to evaluate building design alternatives with different levels of energy efficiency. It is a method that can be applied to any capital investment decision in which higher initial costs are exchanged for reduced future operating costs. The design alternative with the lowest life cycle cost is the most cost-effective.
