Volunteer Strata Buildings Sought in Sydney

The City of Sydney wants you! If you're the right kind of start building to participate in their Smart Green Apartments Program.


The program wants to create more efficient and cost-effective buildings by focusing on energy/water efficiency and waste reduction and trying to improve base building performance, minimise environmental impacts and connect residents around greening initiatives.

So they are looking for 25 buildings to participate in a pilot programme and study.  It's free and your building will receive -

• A comprehensive Energy Saver audit, provided through the Office of Environment & Heritage’s Energy Saver program with costed recommendations and clear pay-back periods to increase the efficiency of your building.
• A Water Use Report providing recommendations for improving water efficiency
• A Waste and recycling assessment and upgrade

Part of the deal is that you should implement recommended improvements and provide ongoing information for monitoring purposes.

You can find out more here.  And, if you want to participate contact Julia Lipton, the Sustainability Engagement Coordinator at City of Sydney by email or on +612 9246 7826.

It's a great way to improve your building with the best advice and show others what and how to do it.
