Inter-Building Effects (IBEs) can influence a building’s energy performance. We developed an approach to separately assess mutual shading and reflection. Cross-regional and real urban cases were studied using a dynamic simulation tool. We found shading IBE to impact building energy usage more than reflection IBE. The findings provide a more nuanced understanding of mutual building influences.
