History and emergence


of the Green Star in Australia

Presented by Albert Yu
HISTORY

History
The green star gating tool was released for offices in 2003 by The green
building council of Australia, and subsequently released rating tools for office
interiors, education, healthcare and industrial facilities, public buildings, multi-
unit residential developments and retail centres.

Today, the GBCA operates four Green Star rating tools:


Green Star - Design & As Built (for any building type)

Green Star - Communities (for neighborhoods and precincts)

Green Star - Performance (for building operations)

Green Star - Interiors (for fitouts).

Presented by Albert Yu
HISTORY

History
Special Green Star rating tools have been developed for buildings that fall
outside the scope of Green Star rating tools, including supermarkets, restaurants
and railway stations.

The system assesses and rates buildings, fitouts and communities against
a range of environmental impact categories, and aims to encourage leadership in
environmentally-sustainable design and construction, showcase innovation in
sustainable building practices, and consider occupant health, productivity and
operational cost savings.
HISTORY

The GBCA
The Green Building Council
of Australia (GBCA) was
established in 2002 and is a not-
for-profit industry association that
promotes sustainability in the built
environment. The GBCA is best
known for developing the Green
Star rating system for buildings and
communities.
HISTORY

The GBCA
The GBCA's member
companies comprise developers,
local, state and federal
governments, owners, professional
services firms, investors,
manufacturers, suppliers and
distributors, facility and asset
managers, universities,
professional societies, utilities and
contractors.
