The Sustainability Institute is an award-winning, nonprofit organization with a mission of empowering South Carolina communities to transform our homes and workplaces to conserve energy and reduce our overall environmental impact.

Since 1999, we have conducted Energy Conservation workshops for over 4000 families, consulted with more than 50 businesses, and trained and certified over 225 home performance professionals. Our efforts have resulted in over $2,000,000 in net energy savings for those with whom we have worked. By 2013, our programs will create 325 new 'green' sector jobs and will increase the energy efficiency of over 1200 units, with a 20%+ energy reduction in each.

We do this work for our future. We do it not only for ourselves, but for those to whom we will pass on our homes, our community, and our planet. Learn more about us. Join our movement.
