Motivation (why we need this feature): Streamline modelling and reporting for Green Star Buildings, Which regions need the feature?: Australia and New Zealand, Which projects types does the feature support?: Buildings, Fit Outs, Which ratings systems require the feature?: Green Star Buildings,

Reporting templates following the requirements of the new GS Buildings rating:
– Upfront Carbon: treatment of carbon sequestration
– Life Cycle Impacts: normalisation and weighting, future decarbonised grid options.

eTool to approve eToolLCD automated reports with GBCA to streamline the process and avoid transferring data into GBCA calculators.

    Hi Henrique,

    Decarbonised grids are available in the app. We have also put together a support post for modelling GS Buildings projects. Included in that support post is a reporting spreadsheet that calculates upfront emissions and life cycle impacts according to the Green Star methodology.

    One important thing to note is that older LCI sources will not calculate the life cycle impacts correctly due to a change in characterisation methodology for ADPE that was only implemented in the v19 LCI dataset.
