NABERS, the National Australian Built Environment Rating System is an Australian national initiative, managed by the Government of New South Wales' Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (New South Wales) on behalf of the Australian Government, that measures and compares the environmental performance of Australian buildings and tenancies.

There are NABERS rating tools for commercial office buildings to measure greenhouse gas emissions, energy efficiency, water efficiency, waste efficiency and indoor environment quality. There are also energy/greenhouse and water rating tools for hotels, shopping centres and data centres.
