CSIRO Energy Centre

GHD’s design for the CSIRO Energy Centre sets a new benchmark in ecologically sustainable design.

The centre features a combination of energy-efficient building services, such as active and passive cooling systems and
small-scale generation units capable of delivering most of its power needs.

GHD’s multi-disciplinary approach allowed it to integrate sustainable solutions into the design. GHD also provided mechanical, electrical, fire hydraulics, lift security, communications, civil engineering and community consultation services for the project.

The project received the 2003 Gold Medal Award for sustainable green buildings from the Royal Australian Institute of Architects and the 2004 NSW Urban Design Taskforce Development Excellence Award for Sustainable Development.
