Rate your premises

Your Path:  Rate your premises


NABERS ratings for offices are based on actual data related to the performance of your premises over the last 12 months. To make this real-life performance data comparable with other sites, certain adjustments are made to take into account the specific nature of your site to make the comparisons relevant and realistic. The adjusted data is then compared to our benchmark data, and a rating score reflecting your performance relative to your peers is calculated.

You must obtain an accredited rating through a NABERS Accredited Assessor to promote your rating and use the NABERS trademark. The cost of an accredited rating will depend on the type of rating you are undertaking, the size of your building, and the difficulty of gathering the appropriate data. For more information on the benefits of an accredited NABERS rating, see the About NABERS section.

Only NABERS Accredited Assessors are able to perform accredited ratings. These assessors are skilled in the management and operation of office buildings, especially in the facilitation of energy and water efficiency projects. All assessors must meet strict selection criteria, attend a training session and pass an exam to gain accreditation.

You can self-assess the environmental performance of your office premises at no cost using the NABERS Rating calculator. For a quick guide on the data you will need to collect to self-assess your office, go to Collecting data for a self assessment.

NABERS is a national initiative managed by the NSW Government.
