If you are getting different values for "zone lights total heating energy" when you rotate the building, my guess is that some of your lights are controlled by a daylight sensor. When you rotate the building, it changes how much daylight comes through the windows in the zone. In orientations where more daylight comes through the windows, the daylight sensors dim the electric lights more, leading to a reduction in "zone lights total heating energy."
