NABERS for Apartment Buildings
The City of Melbourne is excited to be working with the National Australian Built Environment Rating System (NABERS) team to roll out a brand new, national efficiency rating tool for the apartment sector. NABERS will allow apartment blocks to easily identify how to future proof their buildings and make significant savings in their common area bills.
