Solatube Daylighting Systems can help your green building project earn credits towards Green Star certification.
Please note this is only available in Australia, not New Zealand
The Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) has developed a national environmental rating tool for different phases of the building life-cycle (design, fit-out and operation) and for different building classes:
- Office Interiors
- Retail Centres
- Health
- Education

Green Star has built on existing systems and tools in overseas markets, including the British BREEAM system (Building research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) and the North American LEED system (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) by establishing individual environmental measurement criteria relevant to the Australia marketplace and environmental context.
Solatube's Daylighting Systemis is the only Daylighting System available in New Zealand that has been tested and certified by the NFRC for its high performance and energy efficiency and has obtained ENERGY STAR rating in Austrlia.
