Energy-smart Parliament house.

An integrated approach to energy management and auditing over the past 10 years has turned Australia's Parliament House into an energy champion. Total energy consumption and associated greenhouse gas emissions over that time have been culled by an impressive 52.3% and 41.2% respectively. Equally impressive is the fact that all energy efficiency improvements have been fully funded from energy savings. This performance is well ahead of industry benchmarking and governmental policy targets and there are ongoing commitments to' further reduce energy consumption by 1.5% per annum over the next six years.
