Carbon Accounting Software for Australian Property Funds and Real Estate

A typical mid-market property fund has 30 to 400 buildings, mixed commercial and retail, mostly metropolitan, with electricity and gas invoices arriving from four to six retailers. That is 600 to 5,000 invoices per quarter, plus tenant sub-meter data where available. NABERS submission, AASB S2 dual disclosure, NGER facility submission, and GRESB scoring all sit on top of the same underlying utility data.

Frequently asked

Does it produce a NABERS submission?

The system produces a NABERS-ready energy data extract with 12 months of metered data per building, ready for the NABERS rating tool. The same data also feeds the AASB S2 dual Scope 2 disclosure and the NGER facility submission, all reconciling to source.

How does it handle tenant emissions allocation?

Sub-meter data and floor-area allocations are stored against each tenant and tagged for Scope 3 Category 13 reporting. The GRESB 2026 methodology that reclassified tenant-spaces-landlord-controlled emissions as Scope 1 and 2 is handled by tagging at the meter level, not by recalculation.

What about PPAs and GreenPower?

PPA settlement statements and LGC surrender records flow into the emissions ledger continuously. The market-based Scope 2 disclosure includes only LGCs that meet the GHG Protocol Scope 2 Quality Criteria, with vintage and surrender date documented.
