This study presents a comprehensive literature review on integrating Building Information Modeling (BIM) within the Brazilian Building Labeling Program (PBE Edifica), focusing on challenges, workflows, and research gaps. Emphasizing the advantages of BIM in PBE Edifica, this research highlights its effectiveness in data extraction, automation, and visualization tasks. Challenges encompass the absence of standardized practices for integrating BIM with Building Energy Modeling (BEM), interoperability issues, and limited exploration of universal standards, such as Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). The identified challenges involve disparities in simulation outcomes, concerns about BIM model reliability for energy assessments, and complexities in direct and indirect BIM-BEM exports. Future research should consider in-depth investigations into BIM tool intricacies, a comprehensive understanding of data syntax and semantics, and strict adherence to modeling guidelines. This study highlights the crucial connection between design processes and energy efficiency by encouraging the exploration of BIM as a methodological approach. Moreover, there is a need to develop standardized guidelines for BIM modeling, enhanced OpenBIM tools to improve interoperability, and the exploration of ontologies and machine learning for optimized data exchange. The research recommends a broader approach to address technical aspects for successfully integrating BIM in building energy assessments within the Brazilian context.
