The Building Ministers Forum have referred a Trajectory for Low Energy Buildings to the Australian Building Codes Board for further advice.
Building Ministers have asked ABCB to provide advice on:
- Any changes to the trajectory to ensure delivery is in collaboration with industry;
- A holistic review of the energy efficiency provisions in the NCC; and
- A regulatory impact process which can take account of regional differences.
This decision was made in response to the COAG Energy Council’s recent commitment to a Trajectory for Low Energy Buildings and is a positive step for advancing the proposal.
