A climate emergency guide for new and existing buildings in Australia LOW CARBON INSTITUTE RACE TO NET ZERO CARBON3 Sub Section heading Acknowledgement of Country The authors of this guide acknowledge the Bedegal people, the Traditional Custodians of the Land on which this research was conducted. We pay our respects to Elders both past and present and extend that respect to all First Nations people of Australia.4 Authors Deo Prasad, Malay Dave, Aysu Kuru, Philip Oldfield, Lan Ding, Caroline Noller, Baojie He Title Race to Net Zero Carbon: A Climate Emergency Guide for New and Existing Buildings in Australia v1b November 2021 (Updated July 2022) Cover The circle, signifying net zero, comprises both embodied carbon (in green) and operational carbon (in yellow), illustrating that both embodied and operational carbon must be considered in a building’s lifecycle. Guide design Jinga Design This guide and its benchmarks and targets have been reviewed by industry advisors: Lester Partridge from LCI Consultants, Ian Dixon from GHD and Caroline Pidcock from PIDCOCK. This project also benefited from the data and comments provided by NABERS, Planning Institute of Australia, and Architects Declare Australia, and the review, support and guidance of the Australian Institute of Architects Climate Action and Sustainability Taskforce (CAST) Group. This was a collaborative project undertaken with CAST. This revision (v1b) has benefited from the review and feedback received from GBCA, NABERS, DeltaQ, Strategy Policy Research, and the Australian Department of Industry, Science, Energy and Resources. This guide was funded and enabled by the CRC for Low Carbon Living in the post-CRC phase and published by the Low Carbon Institute Pty Ltd. The Low Carbon Institute takes custodial care of CRC for Low Carbon Living publications.

STATEMENT OF LIMITATIONS The state of climate emergency relates to unprecedented environmental challenges at the interface of, and driven by, the dynamic interplay between primarily three areas: carbon emissions, biodiversity loss, and consumption impacts. The scope of this guide, however, is limited to carbon emissions from the built environment sector. Similarly, the built environment sector directly or indirectly interacts with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that define the key challenges the global community needs to address for achieving a more sustainable future for all. 4 Therefore, it is important to balance the role of the built environment across multiple priorities beyond just climate change or carbon. However, considering the scope of this guide is aimed at addressing the climate emergency, the primary focus of this guide remains on energy use and carbon emissions reductions. The benchmarks and targets established in this guide are based on underlying methodological assumptions and the availability of data at the time of writing. Therefore, it is expected that these benchmarks and targets will be reviewed every three years, as new data and methods emerge. Any suggestions of data, methods or feedback for any future editions of this guide are welcome. The targets set in this guide are minimum performance targets. They should not be used as the norm nor as maximum performance targets. As repeatedly emphasised in this guide, it is not enough to just meet these targets; they are only interim milestones on the pathway to net zero carbon across the entire built environment. In many cases clients and design teams will have the desire and capacity to reduce carbon emissions (embodied and operational) well beyond the targets presented in this guide, which should be encouraged. Every GHG emission saving is vital as soon as possible.
