Green Star FAQs
Can credit 22.Digital Infrastructure be claimed as Innovation under Global Sustainability?
Yes, conditionally.
The Green Star - Communities credit 22 Digital Infrastructure may be claimed as Innovation under Global Sustainability on the condition that the digital infrastructure initiative demonstrates a significant community impact.
This significant community impact is to be in line with the aim of the credit in Green Star - Communities, which is to better enable the connection of individuals with other people, goods, services, and information.
Digital infrastructure initiatives that are limited to the boundary and immediate area outside of commercial and residential buildings are deemed standard industry practice, and are not accepted as part of the innovation claim.
If the project team would like to confirm their approach, a free-of-charge technical question may be submitted to the GBCA for review.
