Office Portfolio Owners
The owners of Australia’s office buildings are facing big changes in the way they manage, sell and lease their assets.
Electricity has for some time been one of the biggest costs of running an office building and rising with the recent big increases in electricity network charges.
As well, from 1st November 2011 a comprehensive Building Energy Efficiency Certificate (BEEC) will be required when selling or leasing more than 2000sqm. For the first time, the BEEC must include the new Tenancy Lighting Assessment.
The expansion of compliance requirements demands a specialised approach to energy management to ensure that you are ready to go to market with a property at any time without falling foul of the new laws.
At Big Switch Projects, our team is ready to:
deliver accurate NABERS Energy ratings;
manage building upgrades to improve ratings and increase their value;
ensure the lessons learnt from an upgrade in one building managed by one property manager are enjoyed by another building managed by another property manager;
communicate the benefits to tenants and investors;
manage and cut energy costs; and
ensure 100% compliance with the CBD scheme.
