Energy Efficiency: Compliance Pathways Under the NCC

A stamped energy rating or compliance certificate is a promise about what gets built, not a guarantee of it. Understand the different ways houses, commercial buildings and apartments demonstrate NCC energy-efficiency compliance, and why the builder is the one who actually delivers -- or quietly undoes -- what the design assumed.
