Green Star - Performance
The development of Green Star - Performance continues to proceed at a rapid pace, with a third of the proposed credits already in a draft format. Our Green Star - Performance Project Leader, Robert Milagre, has recently returned from North America, where he met with his counterparts to discuss alternative approaches used in other jurisdictions.
"There are many similarities between the Australian and North American markets, and it is very heartening to see the success of the LEED tool for existing buildings, operation and maintenance," he says. "The LEED-EBOM tool is certifying more projects in the US than the rest of the LEED tools combined - and we expect similar results in Australia once our Green Star - Performance rating tool takes off."
Once the tool is released, the GBCA will be developing new education resources specifically geared for building operators and the facilities management industry.
