Recently, Australia’s building ministers met and agreed to raise the nation’s energy efficiency minimum standards for residential houses from a minimum 6 star efficiency to 7 star efficiency rating.
Raising the National Construction Code’s efficiency requirements under the National Home Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS), from 6 stars to 7 stars can create concerns for consumers as they try to understand what it means for their build and the costs associated with building to 7 star efficiency rating.
