Webinar: Explaining the NABERS Embodied Carbon Rating Tool

Please note: The webinar link will be sent to all attendees the day prior to the event

Gain a better understanding of how to measure embodied carbon, using the NABERS embodied carbon rating tool. We will cover:

• The methodology: the building lifecycle, what building materials are measured, how to measure.
• Material emissions: the role of EPDs and carbon footprints.
• What data is needed and where to get it.
• What does good and bad look like? Setting benchmarks and targets.
• The NABERS rating process, how you can become a NABERS Assessor, and how Assessors will work with project teams to measure and reduce embodied carbon.

A core aspect of this work is collaborating with people across the building industry, to ensure we develop a tool that's trusted, meaningful, and drives behaviour change to reduce emissions.
