2. MUNICIPAL POLICY
Define municipal emissions profile
Set abatement strategy
Identify most cost efficient opportunities
Barriers and enablers
Action - Regulate and facilitate
Define city’s emissions profile
Set abatement strategy
Identify lowest cost opportunities
Barriers - Understand attitudes to abatement
Action - Regulate and facilitate

Set the abatement strategy
2. MUNICIPAL POLICY
City Scale Climate Action Planning in East and South-East Asia
most cost-effective opportunities.
2. MUNICIPAL POLICY
City Scale Climate Action Planning in East and South-East Asia
Barriers and enablers
Regulation:
Building Energy Efficiency Disclosure Act 2010 (Australian Government)
Corporate sector attitudes:
Tenants want ‘green’ buildings
understand energy efficiency provides financial returns
compete to increase the efficiency of portfolios.
Accept Efficiency standards & mandatory disclosure
understand can get significant gains for a small investment
2. MUNICIPAL POLICY
City Scale Climate Action Planning in East and South-East Asia
Attitudes to abatement
Non-corporate sector:
poor communication between owners, tenants and managers ( except Owners Corporations)
Retrofitting not relevant to them
Concerns about poor ratings
Believe it will be costly
insufficient time to manage
Preoccupied with cost management
2. MUNICIPAL POLICY

3. RETROFIT EXISTING STOCK - 1200 BUILDINGS
Benefits of retrofitting
Obstacles to retrofitting
Best opportunities for retrofitting
The 1200 Buildings program
Regulated disclosure of energy performance

3. RETROFIT EXISTING
Benefits of retrofitting
Owners:
Lower running costs
Reduce risk of obsolescence
Improved reputation
Tenant retention
Increased access to capital
Reduced CO 2 emissions
State economy:
$2 billion investment
8,000 jobs( over 10 years)
