Who We Are

The Smart Energy Design Assistance Center (SEDAC) is designed to encourage for-profit small business owners, design professionals, and building contractors to incorporate renewable energy systems and energy conservation practices. SEDAC supports the Small Business $mart Energy (SB$E) program to increase the efficient and effective use of energy in for-profit businesses throughout Illinois. SEDAC is sponsored by the Illinois Department of Community and Economic Opportunity and is managed by the School of Architecture at the University of Illinois.
