About us

We are here to support your laboratory

Labs that aren't green don't just hurt the planet. They cost you money. Budgets are tighter than ever, and your research dollars are siphoned away by your energy, water and heating bills. Old and out-dated equipment wastes time, supplies, and even more energy. You can drop your operating overhead by more than 12% with our nonprofit's free guidance.

It doesn't matter if you're in a lab of 2 or 200, we can help you reduce the energy, water, and consumable materials you use. Big savings for your budget and big savings for the planet.

The goal and mission behind

We create value for research labs by helping them spend more on science and less on waste. We envision a world where research labs contribute to a circular economy. Where they don't waste research dollar on waste. Right now, a research lab's carbon footprint is 10x that of a office building. A lot of this is due to out-dated equipment, incorrectly optimized electrical usage, and lack of training. We're going to change that.

How we got started

After 25 years in the field of energy efficiency, Steven Miller's passion for sustainability took him to Eversource, a New England utility conglomerate. There, he proposed new ways to promote and incentivize lab energy solutions that have been widely adopted in Massachusetts. Along the way, he learned that energy was only part of the equation and felt called to act. He founded LabReNew in 2022 as a 501(c3) to help labs minimize resource consumption, reduce waste generation, and foster a culture of sustainability.
