| Abstract |
The development of sustainable energy alternatives has been driven by the urgency of climate change and its countermeasures. The construction industry also needs to develop alternatives that reduce the electrical energy and costs generated throughout the entire lifecycle of buildings. In this paper, we explored energy utilization strategies and analyzed the Life Cycle Cost (LCC) for economic feasibility by developing alternatives that can be applied to solar panels using MXene during the construction and maintenance stages. Alternative 1 was selected as the existing simulation target, Alternative 2 was the existing simulation target + organic solar panels, and finally, Alternative 3 was the existing simulation target + MXene-based solar panels. The analysis results showed that Alternative 3 was the most cost-effective, validating the feasibility of introducing organic solar panels using MXene as an energy utilization strategy in the construction industry. |
