NABERS Rating

NABERS (National Australian Built Environment Rating System) is a performance based rating system for existing buildings, hotels and shopping centres. Ratings are based on buildings operations and provide a performance based star rating on where they are positioned.
NABERS ratings are assessed from 0 - 5 stars, and provide buildings the opportunity to see where their property sits against other Australian properties. NABERS is designed to provide a comparable rating against other buildings based on performance.
NABERS assessors are trained and accredited by the Department of Environment, Climate Chance and Water. As an

1. A comparable building rating;
2. Benchmarked performance;
3. Marketing of credentials;

Why you need a NABERS rating?
NABERS rating assists office buildings and hotels identify their current position and provides an easily comparable rating to other buildings and hotels in Australia.
With the passing of the Building Energy Efficiency Disclosure Act, commercial office buildings that meet the threshold will be required to attain a NABERS rating when sold or leased. Developing and understanding the process for data collection early will assist in transition.
How much will a NABERS rating cost?
A NABERS rating will depend upon the size and complexity of your premise and the availability of property data.
