Online Rating System (ORS) Updates and Tips


Single Family and Multifamily Rating Update

2023 Single Family and Multifamily Ratings are in effect as of 10/1/2023. 


Austin Energy Green Building regularly updates its ratings to encourage excellence and innovation in design. Changes in green building technologies and techniques, as well as revisions to codes and the City of Austin goals, influence the rating updates.

 

To check out the new ratings go to the "HELP" tab at the top of this page.


Commercial Rating Update

The AEGB Commercial team has released a revision to the 2022 Commercial Rating Guidebook to correct typos and provide references to rating tools. 


The 2022 Primary Workbook can be downloaded from the Help tab of the ORS or from the reference documents of the BR1. Goal Setting measure. The AEGB Site Selection Map can be used through ArcGIS Online, linked in the reference documents of the ST1. Intentional Site Selection measure. 


Additionally, we would like to invite any of our interested stakeholders to provide ongoing feedback to the 2022 Commercial Rating through our revised Speak Up Austin page.
