Launch of the report
Low Carbon, High
Performance - How
buildings can make a
major contribution to
Australia’s emissions
and productivity goals,
Presented
to Victorian
Government’s
Energy Efficiency
and Energy
Productivity
Summit on building
energy efficiency
RT 09 28
Australian Building
Code Board
collaborated with
ClimateWorks and
ASBEC to facilitate
the upgrade of energy
efficiency measures
in the national
building code
• Property Council
of Australia and
Green Building
Council of Australia
have based their
policies on our
recommendations,
ahead of 2016
Federal Election
• Multiple government
stakeholders have
requested briefings,
as have a range
of key corporate
and industry
stakeholders,
including the
Investor Group on

Z 40 RH
Led a collaborative
project involving
several Indonesian
stakeholders and
the UN Sustainable
Development Solutions
Network and funded
by the Australian
Department of
Foreign Affairs and
Trade, to improve
energy efficiency in
commercial buildings
across Australia
and Indonesia
ClimateWorks
included in
the Victorian
Government’s Energy
Efficiency and
Energy Productivity
Roadmap workgroup
on minimum building
standards to improve
energy efficiency
prepared for
the Australian
Sustainable Built
Environment Council
(ASBEC). It highlights
that even without
technological
breakthroughs,
cost-effective energy
efficiency can reduce
projected 2050
emissions from
buildings by more
than half and adding
renewables can take
emissions to net
zero. This report has
quickly become an
industry benchmark,
extensively
referenced in industry
publications and
contributing to
these impacts:
