Frasers Property sets sustainability benchmark for Australian project

SINGAPORE – Frasers Property Australia, the international arm of local leading property company, Frasers Centrepoint Limited, announced its plans to undergo the largest sustainability project in Sydney, Australia. Frasers Broadway, formerly known as the Carlton United Brewery site, will aim to achieve a ‘6 Green Star’ rating and is targeting 100 percent carbon neutrality, in its transformation of the site into a mixed use development of apartments, offices, shops, restaurants and community services.

In the amended concept plan, the new precinct will boast innovative sustainability initiatives, one of which is the use of ‘Tri-Generation’ - a gas powered, low carbon usage facility which will help achieve substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Together with other sustainability initiatives (including design efficiency, smart metering and solar powered public spaces), Frasers will pro-actively investigate all available technologies and techniques to target 100 percent carbon neutrality in this project.

Frasers Broadway will be the first urban development in Australia to achieve a 6 Green Star rating for the precinct, and the largest urban development in the country to introduce ‘Tri-Generation’.
