Introduction to BEECs

Under the Commercial Building Disclosure Program, a Building Energy Efficiency Certificate (BEEC) is required to comply with the Building Energy Efficiency Disclosure Act 2010 (BEED Act). BEECs have three components:

  • a NABERS Energy for offices rating (exclusive of GreenPower) for the building
  • a CBD lighting assessment for the area of the building that is being sold or leased
  • general energy efficiency guidance

Applications for a BEEC can only be submitted by a CBD Accredited Assessor. Application forms are available on the forms section of this website. For further information about BEECs refer to the guidance note.

An example of a BEEC is provided.
