Capability Statement
National building performance, sustainability and environmental assessment capability for Australian residential, commercial and planning projects.
Certified Energy brings together energy compliance, environmental modelling, sustainability frameworks, carbon and lifecycle intelligence, spatial analysis and coordinated support across the built environment.
Explore Our CapabilityWho We Are
Certified Energy works with architects, builders, developers, consultants, property professionals and institutional teams across Australian residential, commercial and planning contexts.
Our work sits between regulation, design, modelling and practical project delivery. We help clarify which pathways may apply, interpret the available documentation and connect each scope with the appropriate specialist expertise.
This multidisciplinary structure brings together residential energy performance, commercial compliance, environmental modelling, carbon and lifecycle intelligence, spatial analysis and technical review within a clear, evidence-based workflow.

Leadership, Technical Direction & Delivery
Certified Energy brings together architectural understanding, organisational direction, executive operations, technical team leadership and structured bid management within one established project delivery framework.
Professional & Technical Direction
Director · Registered Architect
Provides professional oversight, architectural interpretation and technical direction across residential, commercial and planning-related project environments.
Organisational Direction
Managing Director
Leads organisational development, strategic systems and the operational structure supporting consistent delivery across a growing national project portfolio.
Executive Operations
Executive Operations & Executive Assistant
Supports executive operations, internal coordination and organisational continuity, helping maintain clear workflows and day-to-day delivery across leadership and project priorities.
Technical Team Leadership
Technical Team Leader
Oversees technical team coordination, assessment consistency and delivery quality across multiple building-performance and compliance pathways.
Bid Management & Project Intake
Bid Management Lead
Leads bid coordination, project intake and scope clarification, helping connect each enquiry with the appropriate technical team and assessment pathway.
Together, this structure connects professional responsibility, organisational direction, executive continuity, technical management and project intake. It enables Certified Energy to interpret project requirements clearly, assign the appropriate expertise and maintain continuity from initial enquiry through assessment, review and delivery.
The wider delivery team supports work across residential and commercial building performance, energy compliance, environmental modelling, carbon and lifecycle reporting, spatial intelligence and sustainability frameworks. Established review, coordination and workflow systems help maintain clarity, consistency and accountability across Australian project contexts.
Industry Programs & Strategic Capability
Certified Energy has contributed to initiatives extending beyond routine consultancy work, including national residential rating trials, property-sector collaboration and specialist spatial methodologies.
Residential Rating Innovation
Participation in the national CORE and Scale trials provided practical insight into existing-home assessment, field delivery, documentation requirements and the operation of emerging rating pathways.
Property-Sector Collaboration
A non-exclusive collaboration supporting the application of home-energy assessment within broader property information and residential rating environments.
Spatial Methodology
Urbanfinity spatial methodologies extend Certified Energy’s work into viewshed analysis, visual impact assessment and site-based interpretation of development within its wider context.
Technical Platforms
Certified Energy works across established rating software, simulation environments, spatial methodologies and internal workflows. Together, these systems help organise information, test performance and maintain clarity across different building types and regulatory contexts.
Residential Performance
AccuRate, HERO and BERS Pro are used across NatHERS, thermal performance and residential energy-rating pathways.
Building Simulation
DesignBuilder and related simulation environments are applied to commercial energy performance, compliance pathways and environmental behaviour.
Site Intelligence
Urbanfinity methodologies support viewshed analysis, visual impact studies and the interpretation of site relationships within wider urban and landscape contexts.
Operational Systems
Structured intake, allocation, documentation and review processes help work move clearly between client, coordination and specialist teams.
Who We Support
Our role varies by context—from clarifying early requirements and reviewing documentation to contributing specialist analysis within larger design, approval and asset programs.
Experience within property-sector assessment environments, including work connected with HTW, Opteon and NAB residential performance programs.
Specialist input helping design teams interpret energy, sustainability, environmental and planning requirements as documentation develops.
Clear documentation pathways across individual buildings, multi-unit developments, commercial work and larger staged programs.
Structured input for trials, public-interest initiatives, institutional environments and programs requiring repeatable processes and clear quality controls.
