Assists in understanding the energy efficiency provisions in NCC Volume Two that apply to houses.

NatHERS compliance pathway for energy efficiency.

Outlines the peer review process which can be used as a compliance option for assessing the energy equivalence (thermal performance) of new houses and major renovations (where practical) in Queensland.

Explains how NatHERS assessments work and is an essential tool for NatHERS assessors.

The purpose of this guide is to provide an overview of how the BASIX engine works to estimate energy and water consumption in houses and apartments, and how these outputs can be used to inform design decisions.

AS/NZS 1547:2012 provides the requirements for treatment units and their respective land application systems to achieve sustainable and effective on-site domestic wastewater management, to protect public health and the environment. This Standard identifies the performance statements that cover the overall design and sustainable management of on-site domestic wastewater systems.

AS/NZS 1158.1.1:2022 specifies performance and design requirements for Category V lighting schemes, including requirements relating to the energy efficiency of the luminaires used. It also specifies the luminaire data and other design data that is needed to facilitate the lighting design and the assessment  of conformance to the requirements of this document.

Sets out requirements for electrical installations associated with site supplies for connectable electrical installations that are intended for connection to low voltage a.c. supply systems (i.e. exceeding 50 V a.c. but not exceeding 1 000 V a.c.).
