Phase I of Program Deployment through Pilots
South Carolina Home Energy Labels are not yet available statewide. A few partners have agreed to launch pilots through the South Carolina Home Energy Labeling program. The organizations listed below are currently offering official South Carolina Home Energy Labels through this program.
South Carolina Home Energy Labels are only available through Home Energy Score™ Assessors that have been qualified through the U.S. Department of Energy Home Energy Score™ program. The South Carolina Energy Office is looking to grow the number of organizations and Assessors offering home energy labels throughout 2026.

Program History
In 1992, the South Carolina General Assembly passed the South Carolina Energy Efficiency Act, which created the State Energy Office and called for the creation of a comprehensive state energy plan (“State Energy Plan” or “Plan”). Sec on 48-52-210 of the South Carolina Code of Laws governs the State Energy Plan. The State Energy Plan provides a comprehensive blueprint for a reliable, resilient, clean, and affordable energy system for South Carolina residents and businesses.
In 2025 The South Carolina Energy Office is launching a voluntary Home Energy Score program in support of South Carolina Energy Efficiency Act. Working with partners across the state, the Energy Office is providing support to allow homeowners to sign up for the custom Home Energy Score assessment and receive the South Carolina custom report. Our partner, Earth Advantage, Inc. is providing assessor training, quality assurance, and technical support to deliver the program. Any Home Energy Score a homeowner deems “public” will be full accessible on the Green Building Registry® website.
