Presentation Overview: The 2022 National Construction Code (NCC) requires all new Australian homes to meet a minimum energy efficiency rating of 7 stars, under the Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS). More energy-efficient homes mean more comfortable homes, which use less energy, marking a significant step forward in designing dwellings with climate front-of-mind. 
As such, builders and designers need to have a good handle on how they can create 7-star homes that are visually stunning as well as affordable. Simple design features and product selections can make a big difference to a home's energy efficiency. 

By understanding the NCC changes and design elements that impact star-rating, this presentation will help take the confusion out of 7-star design, allowing you to build new homes with confidence and deliver the modern homes your clients seek.
