What We Do

From big-picture planning and programming to detail-driven project orientation, GreenerU helps institutions navigate the organizational, operational, and infrastructure changes required to decarbonize.

GreenerU’s experienced professionals help institutions with the complex process of energy-efficiency auditing and baselining, formulation and design, managing implementation, providing training at project closeout, and monitoring results—all with an eye toward engagement and sensitivity to our clients’ unique needs. What’s more, we help our clients maximize utility incentives and offer several financing opportunities.

The GreenerU difference

We started in 2009 helping the education sector, where campuses can have a vast variety of building types: classrooms, living quarters, gymnasiums, office space, and so much more.

These and other institutions face challenges of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from their operations, providing comfortable indoor environments, generating cost savings in the process, and—most importantly—continuing to pursue their institutional vision, mission, and values.

We’ve become a vital and active partner with more than 80 institutions that are looking to see significant progress in the fight against climate change.

Our business model is centered around a single objective for our clients: helping to navigate the pathways to decarbonization. We accomplish this through planning, engineering, and construction.

We focus on minimizing disruption, maximizing savings, and ensuring your stakeholders are informed and engaged every step of the way.
