The SEAL (Sustainability, Environmental Achievement & Leadership) Business Sustainability Awards honor companies committed to driving true progress towards a lasting, healthy planet. Palmetto is the recipient of this year’s Sustainable Service Award, which recognizes companies delivering innovative services that set a new standard for sustainability. Winners were judged on impact metrics, innovation and uniqueness of services, and their ability to inspire sustainable change.

Since 2010, Palmetto has been building the technology underpinnings of the American clean energy ecosystem. The Company focuses on innovating solutions for the solar industry and making it cheaper, easier, and faster for homeowners to adopt clean energy inside their homes. At the heart of this is Palmetto’s Clean Energy Operating Platform™, which weaves together the Company’s proprietary data intelligence and powerful software tools to streamline the sale of residential clean energy products - ultimately resulting in lower pricing and a superior experience for the consumer.

"Integration and Impact are the watchwords of the 2024 SEAL Sustainability Awards. This year, we've seen an impressive synthesis of technology, design, and innovation combined to drive sustainable impact," commented Matt Harney, Chairperson and Founder of SEAL Awards. "Alongside the critical need for organizations to dedicate real investment and human capital into ESG, the holistic approach of these award winners is imperative to keep driving progress."

“We are honored to receive the SEAL Sustainable Service Award and this recognition of our innovations and leadership in the clean energy industry,” said Chris Kemper, Founder, CEO and Chairman of Palmetto. “We believe that climate change cannot be stopped unless we achieve a massive transformation of our energy grid to renewable sources like solar, and that technology is the driver of scale in accelerating this transition.”

Today, Palmetto covers over 126 utilities with a service area of over 72 million households. Palmetto’s technology has mapped and calculated the solar energy potential of over 85% of American rooftops and, every month, quotes personalized energy savings for nearly 15,000 homeowners.
