Mission

The Eneref Institute

An research and advocacy group whose mission is to investigate the efficacy of sustainable building projects, provide relevant case studies and advance individual leadership.

Eneref Institute examines advancements in sustainable building technologies. Research is done by investigating successful projects, and our reporting provides case studies of sustainable ideas to the media. We use our research to develop independent market reports on the impediments and progress of green building technologies within various niche industry markets.

Our Research Center explores the economic benefits of practical applications in residential, commercial, industrial and institutional market sectors. Our research is accomplished by gathering and evaluating data from individual case studies captured from interviews of project stakeholder –  from manufacturer to end user. The Center surveys relevant professionals within their area of expertise about achievements and obstructions.

Based on analysis of press organizations that historically publish — or should publish — such stories, our results are regularly sent to targeted media.  Significant findings are sent to a targeted list of media who regularly publish green building ideas.

A documentary film, The Eneref Project, will seek to demonstrate how zero-energy communities can be commercially viable.
