The present study shows the application of various software performance analysis of daylighting and its energy savings potential in Energy-efficient building topologies. It can easily predict the daylight illuminance and its consequences in any energy-efficient building irrespective of any construction expense with the application of simulation software such as MatLab, Energy Plus, Velux, Relux, DIALux, in the energy analysis process. There are various computer-based tools accessible to the precise appraisal of the building's daylighting and thermal execution. This simulation software performs energy calculation for choosing effective retrofits of energy-efficient building. The study critically reviews and compares software used for energy simulation and daylighting in the building. The survey from this review found that dimming controlled daylighting committed 13% more saving of energy potential in factory building than on/off control system. The importance of daylight software in building energy saving is represented through the case study. The simulated and measured indoor illuminances with and without blinds are represented. The calculated MBE and RMSE (error) by Radiance and Radlink were satisfying each other. The modern state art of review would be helpful for the academician, scientist, and researcher working in the field daylighting.
