Achieving sustainable green building design is essential to reducing our environmental impact and enhancing energy efficiency. Traditional methods often depend heavily on expert knowledge subjective decisions, posing significant challenges. This research addresses these issues by introducing an innovative framework that integrates information modeling (BIM), explainable artificial intelligence (AI), multi-objective optimization. The includes three main components: data generation through DesignBuilder simulation, a BO-LGBM (Bayesian optimization–LightGBM) predictive model with LIME (Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations) for prediction interpretation, the optimization technique AGE-MOEA address uncertainties. A case study demonstrates framework’s effectiveness, achieving high accuracy (R-squared > 93.4%, MAPE < 2.13%) identifying HVAC system features. resulted in 13.43% improvement consumption, CO2 emissions, thermal comfort, additional 4.0% gain when incorporating enhances transparency of machine learning predictions efficiently identifies optimal passive active solutions, contributing significantly construction practices. Future should focus validating its real-world applicability, assessing generalizability across various types, integrating generative capabilities automated
