Due to the energy crisis in 1970, the energy saving is more important for the human civilization. The energy-saving policy is important for the economic growth and competition of Taiwan. The energy of daily life and business consumes 17% of the total energy, especially the air conditioning of architectures on the peak hours occupying a third in summer. So the building energy-saving policy is the most important in Taiwan. The main of theme building energy saving is not only to save energy but also to consider the comfortable and healthy of the living environment. So that, the optimal design of the building energy saving of commercial buildings in Taiwan has been established in this paper. In this study, theoretical analysis and a full scale experiment has been performed to validate this design. Results showed this design is suitable for the NPTC building in the weather condition of south Taiwan, which also complies with the energy code of Taiwan.
