The Commercial Building Disclosure (CBD) Scheme requires owners and managers of large commercial buildings to obtain a Building Energy Efficiency Certificate (BEEC) when selling or leasing space. A BEEC includes a NABERS energy rating and tenant lighting assessment. Preparing a BEEC can take 8-12 weeks, so planning ahead of lease expiries or sales is important. Owners should keep good records like energy bills, surveys and lighting layouts to facilitate BEEC preparation. CBD accredited assessors can help owners and managers comply with BEEC requirements.
