When applying eQUEST building energy analysis software in option D of M&V (Measurement and Verification), it is necessary to collect the data on-site firstly, and then input the data (such as building shell model, glass material, personnel occupation rate, lighting density, equipment, air conditioning system and energy management scheduling) step by step into the eQUEST software after data sorting. Finally, modify the initial model in accordance with the actual electricity bills of the building, so as to explore the changes in energy consumption due to different material settings based on the modified model. The results show that the rate of change in overall energy consumption is between -0.78 % and 1.67 % given that the personnel occupation rate changes 50 % more or less. In terms of the lighting density, the overall energy consumption has a rate of change from -30.28 % to 31.19 % if the lighting density changes 50 % more or less. Moreover, the relative low energy consumption can be obtained when the general glass is replaced by three-layer glass of low emissivity with an overall energy consumption rate of -0.71 %. After the building shell material is changed into RC structure, the rate of overall energy consumption is 1.66 %, which is 0.68 % when changed into brick wall and 0.09 % when changed into precast wall. In the simple models, it can be learned that the final energy consumption results will be affected after the building shell setting is changed, with a rate change in overall energy consumption between -17.64 % and 14.65 % month after month.
