If you have already got the base model of the building and just want to analyze the designs and parameters of green roof, jEPlus is probably the easiest tool to start with. See: http://www.jeplus.org/wiki/doku.php?id=docs:manual_1_6_intro

+1 for openstudio. It's coded in c++ and offers binding to many other language (Java, c#, Python and natively ruby).
Alternatively, You can also check out eppy, written in Python, that will allow you to manipulate energyplus input files (idf)

You can try the openstudio SDK

I am an undergrad pursuing engineering and new to this simulation engine. I have been asked to input via programming platforms like C++ because from engineering point of view, we don't require intricate shapes or designs of buildings and hence using GUI very less. Our main purpose is green roof and building energy simulation and research works related to it. I have a time-constraint and therefore it will be very helpful if you can provide me with some reference materials or links or suggested reading articles/books. I have tried a lot but because of lack of experience with the engine, unfortunately i am not able to do it. Please help!
Thanks in advance.
