Building Futures
Registrations are now open for Building Futures Round 6
Building Futures is a free Council program to help larger strata buildings (25+ units) save money on their energy and water bills and improve environmental performance. Participating buildings work towards reducing common area energy use by 20%, reducing operating costs and carbon emissions.
We are seeking 8 new local strata buildings to participate in this award-winning program that supports Waverley’s Net Zero goals.
Participating buildings receive for FREE:
- Energy assessments of common areas, costed recommendations & implementation support
- Up to $1000 matched funding towards one or more recommended efficiency upgrades that your Strata Committee implements
- A rooftop solar assessment
- Access to Sydney Water’s WaterFIX program for high-water users
- Access to Waverley Council’s Apartment Recycling resources
What’s involved?
We will need from you:
- A Strata Committee that can approve and implement recommended energy and money saving measures and has financial capacity to do so.
- Written approval to participate, allow access to electricity and water data and participate in a case study.
- A key contact person to liaise with on-site access, building information and implementation solutions.
Complete our online application form |
Applications close Friday 25th August, 2023 at 2pm.
*Before you start: You will be asked to enter a recent building's common area electricity bill and Strata Plan number, so it can be useful to get these before completing the form.
But wait there’s more…
Sustainability Rebates for Apartments
Under a 12-month trial, all sized apartment buildings in Waverley can apply for up to $5000 in rebates for common area energy assessments, rooftop solar, electrification of centralised hot water systems & swimming pool heating systems. Visit here for more information.
For more information
For more information or to ask a question, contact Rachel O’Leary, Program Coordinator on 02 9083 8150 or rachel.oleary@waverley.nsw.gov.au
Further resources
A total of 35 apartment buildings have already participated in previous rounds of Building Futures. Collectively these buildings have achieved an average energy saving of 23%, saved thousands of dollars per year on their energy and water bills and reduced their climate impact.
