At Structerre, we are fully trained to provide energy assessments Australia wide. Our energy team is familiar with each individual Australian state’s unique energy requirements for compliance which will ensure your energy report is accepted for building license approval regardless of where your project is located in Australia.
An Energy Assessment Report outlines a house’s ability to make the most of the environment, by assessing the requirements of the home to stay naturally cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Houses with good thermal performance need less artificial heating and cooling, leading to savings on bills and lowering greenhouse gas emissions. The key to achieving a comfortable, high performing home is to design for your climate.
Do I need an energy assessment?
An Energy Efficiency Assessment is required for all new residential and commercial buildings and alterations & additions to meet current BCA requirements to obtain building license approval.
The Structerre Energy team provides a clear, concise and simplified approach to achieving compliance by offering Deemed to Satisfy and Alternative Solution energy assessment methods.
Deemed to Satisfy Solutions:
- House Energy Rating Scheme (HERS)
- Elemental Provisions (EP)
Alternative Solutions:
- Performance Solutions
- State Specific Energy Protocols
We can assess your project through the above methods depending on whether your project needs to be a 6-star energy-efficient home or a minimum BCA compliant built home. A 6-star rating is typically the minimum star rating standard in most states and territories and indicates good thermal performance.
