BEC: At the Forefront of Sustainability

BEC is proud to be constantly at the forefront of sustainable development, especially across Building Services & energy efficiency consultancy services.

Our Team supported Certified Energy and Johnson Controls, to replace an outdated HVAC system at 300 Adelaide St. The 20,000m² commercial building is some 30-years old with the HVAC system including a massive, highly-inefficient 2.5m turbine. The new system featured 7 smaller more efficient fans, saving significant energy & reducing the building’s carbon foot print while keeping the buildings’ tenants cool & comfortable. The BE structures team, as part of our multi-disciplinary offering, designed & certified the framing of the new fans & base structure connections. 

Get in touch with us to see how we can help with upgrading your HVAC systems.

BEC Visits the Nyngan Solar Plant!

BEC were on site in Central NSW recently, meeting with & supporting Local Councils in the area. We made sure to stop in at the Nyngan Solar Plant!

Opened in 2015 and operated by AGL Energy, it was the largest solar plant in the Southern Hemisphere during the time of construction. Its 1.3 million solar panels that produce approximately 360,000 MWh of renewable energy are capable of powering over 50,000 Australian homes.

This solar plant aims to reduce approximately 203,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions a year. We at BE Collective are constantly inspired by projects that contribute positively to the environment; we’re even able to provide Solar System design and specification in house, in addition to Carbon Auditing for your home or business, & Energy Efficiency certification.

Get in touch with our team to discuss!
