Commercial energy efficiency
Australian Building Codes Board
The Commercial Energy Efficiency Handbook (Handbook) assists in understanding the energy efficiency requirements for all non-residential buildings and provides examples where relevant. It addresses issues in generic terms and is not a document that sets out the specific compliance advice for developing solutions to comply with the requirements in the NCC, but rather aims to explain the intent of the provisions. It is expected that this handbook guides readers to develop solutions relevant to specific situations in accordance with the generic principles and criteria contained herein.
