Mass Timber Construction Podcast Special Guests - Christina Wijeratne - Funding Mass Timber in Australia

The Clean Energy Finance Corporation is seeking to transform
Australia's approach to large-scale building construction, with a
new $300 million program to encourage mass timber construction
across the property sector.  Why timber
buildings?  Timber medium and high-rise buildings are
growing in popularity across the world, offering a lower carbon
footprint, fast build time and physiological benefits for the end
user.  Innovations in engineered wood products have created
new opportunities for mass timber construction in larger
projects, with immediate and long-term environmental benefits.
Eligible projects will be considered on a case-by-case basis. The
program will be looking at projects that use low carbon
engineered wood products in large-scale construction, have
secured appropriate materials source, accreditation and embodied
carbon outcomes, are commercially sound, and comply with the
Clean Energy Finance Corporation investment policies, guidelines
and risk approach. In this special guest episode, I speak with
Christina Wijerante who is a Senior Investment Associate at the
Clean Energy Finance Corporation as we talk about the scheme and
how you can submit your project for review. Please enjoy the
conversation with Christina.

Rathborne at ryan.rathborne@cefc.com.au
