What does NABERS stand for?
NABERS stands for National Australian Built Environment Rating System.
What kind of ratings does NABERS provide?
NABERS provides operational and design ratings for buildings, serving as a starting point for building assessments and performance comparisons.
What is a NABERS rating used for?
A NABERS rating is a quantitative assessment of building performance that can be used as a comparison baseline and may indicate eligibility for improvement schemes.
Why is it important to distinguish between different types of NABERS ratings?
It is critical to distinguish between an achieved operational rating (based on actual building operation), a design ambition (projected performance distinct from an achieved rating), and a planned improvement (a proposed future performance level), because these are different pieces of information and should not be treated interchangeably.
How is NABERS used in Victorian Energy Upgrades?
NABERS ratings are used in the benchmark rating method for assessing eligible activities under Victorian Energy Upgrades, which is one of two project-based methods available; the other is measurement and verification using pre- and post-upgrade energy information.
Does having a NABERS rating automatically confirm certificate eligibility under a scheme?
No, the existence of a NABERS rating alone does not automatically confirm certificate eligibility under any scheme—the specific activity requirements, project dates and applicable method must be verified separately.
