How are Green Star rating tools developed?

Fri 13 Jun, 2008 (Updated: Tue 4 Nov, 2008)

Green Star environmental rating tools are developed by the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA). GBCA staff work with the GBCA Technical Working Group, a voluntary collaboration of environmental and industry experts, to research and design the tools.

All Green Star tools are initially launched as PILOT tools with a 90-day public feedback period. A limited number of projects ranging in size and locations undergo assessment using the PILOT environmental rating tool. The GBCA uses the PILOT Assessment Process and stakeholder feedback to refine the tool, which is then officially released as a v1 (version 1).
