Welcome to Sustainable Solutions Corporation

We are excited to share the news of our 10^th anniversary.  Sustainable Solutions Corporation (SSC) is a firm driven by our passion to make things better, one green transformation at a time.  With a focus quite simply on reducing waste and using fewer resources, SSC offers a variety of corporate sustainability services and training programs to provide business executives from firms like James Campbell Company, Black & Decker, CertainTeed and Lycoming opportunities to work, live and lead greener, more sustainable businesses.  What makes us so different is our expertise in sustainability education and our thorough implementation process for:

 

·         Integrated Corporate-Wide Sustainability Training

·         Life Cycle Assessment Programs - Cradle to Cradle

·         Sustainable Buildings Programs incorporating ENERGY STAR             and LEED Certifications

  

For us, the excitement begins in the transformation we see among young team members who come onboard wanting to change the world and make it a better place - often a little discouraged by the views of the news and media and from past work experiences.  They are quickly inspired to see the way we are different, dedicated and truly involved in the process of the green revolution . . . transforming one business at a time. 

 

Why our people love working here:

 

"SSC is a dynamic workplace where it seems we're always among the vanguard in implementing new ideas and technologies. You can feel good about what you do and get to rub shoulders with the leaders of the still relatively small green revolution community. . . ." 

 

- Jeremy Kuhre, Sustainable Buildings & Operations Manager

 

The bottom line is, if we want our environment and our economy to remain fully sustainable for us and future generations, the only choice we have is to integrate sustainable solutions into the way we all do business.

 

Please join us in this venture. 

 

Warm regards,

Tad Radzinski

 The Tallest PV Install in Philly!

This month marks the completion of a monumental solar panel installation in Philadelphia.  The James A. Byrne Courthouse on East Market Street uses 369 Sanyo photovoltaic modules to produce solar energy to offset their energy usage.  The solar array is sized at 81kW and required zero roof penetrations.  The system is located on the 22^nd floor, which makes it the tallest photovoltaic installation in all of Philadelphia.  The Byrne Courthouse will now produce enough solar energy to power 7.5 homes every year or offset 60.5 metric tons of CO₂.

 

Home Energized by the Sun and Firm Awarded the Timber Frame of the Month.

SSC designed this Douglas fir solar pergola with a 5.85 kW solar array consisting of Sanyo Bifacial Photovoltaic panels.  This pergola has won the Timber Frame Business Council's coveted title: Timber Frame of the Month.  The translucent panels are mounted to the frame with a Florian racking system which forms a waterproof roof.  The beautiful Douglas fir frame was manufactured and installed by Hugh Lofting Timber Framing.  The timber frame was successfully installed in May and is now expected to generate approximately 75% of the electricity for the residence.  

Did you know that buildings where an energy management strategy is implemented not only see a 10-30% cost savings in their monthly overhead expenses, but can also lower their building's emissions by 30-50%?

• Energy efficiency is an emerging priority for tenants, buyers and investors alike.
• There are currently only 13,700 ENERGY STAR certified buildings in all of the United States.
• Recently, cities such as New York City, San Francisco and Washington, D.C. have begun requiring energy scores be measured and reported.
• Top performing ENERGY STAR labeled schools cost forty cents per square foot less to operate than average performers.
