Seeking a Sustainable Energy Future
Sustainable Energy Fund (SEF) is an independent, nonprofit 501(c)(3) that assists energy users in overcoming educational, financial, and regulatory barriers to a sustainable energy future: a future in which energy is harvested, converted, distributed, and utilized in a manner that allows all to meet their energy needs now without compromising the ability of their children and grandchildren to meet their needs.

Our mission is to promote, research, and invest in clean and renewable energy technologies, energy conservation, energy efficiency, and sustainable energy enterprises that provide opportunities and benefits for PPL Electric ratepayers in Pennsylvania.
We provide financing for renewable energy projects (e.g. biomass, solar, etc), energy efficiency projects (e.g. building envelope improvements, HVAC, lighting systems, etc.), and energy companies.
As a way to thank nonprofits for their continuous and selfless investment in their communities and to lessen their energy burden, SEF has created a Social Impact Loan and a special nonprofit weatherization Fund. For every loan financed, 10% of all interest paid on the loan will be placed in a Social Impact Loan Fund, which will be used to perform nonprofit weatherization services. Additional benefits of this program include 100% financing, competitive interest rates, and no prepayment penalty. Nonprofits give so much to our communities. Now it’s time to give back.
C-PACE, or Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy, is a financing tool that enables building owners to obtain low-cost, long term financing for energy efficiency, water conservation, and renewable energy projects.
