Future Focus

Powerhouse Parramatta, NSW. Infrastructure NSW. Targeting a 5 Star Green Star Buildings v1 rating.

Green Star Future Focus will see the rating system evolve and adapt to ensure the sustainable built environment delivers what it needs to, whilst also responding to global megatrends and emerging challenges. Currently, five rating tools will be delivered to realise this vision.
