Ultimate goal is the Energy Space, but would like to do consulting in the short-term, not MBB or bust.
Darden- Full tuition fellowship. I like the Darden culture, and Charlottesville seems like an amazing place! Also, I like the case method, and would love the opportunity to test out new cases.
Haas- No money, but great for renewables/sustainability. Haas students have been amazing throughout this process. I would also love the Bay Area weather for a couple years!
Tuck- No money, but also great for renewables/sustainability. I like the Tuck culture as well, and would enjoy the all-in experience that comes with Tuck.
Don’t know if I could justify giving up a full-tuition fellowship at Darden for Haas or Tuck though. Would love your thoughts! Thanks

Congratulations on scoring admits to three great schools! I'm matriculating at Haas, so feel free to take my opinion with a pinch of salt.
In terms of community, it looks like all three schools are a potential culture fit for you. I can only speak accurately about Haas. It's a wonderful community, and I've found everyone to be extremely smart yet humble and fun. But everyone's heard about Tuck's tight-knit community, and it looks like you've had a great experience with the Darden community as well.
I think Darden is the strongest program for consulting recruitment with a slight edge over Tuck and a considerable edge over Haas.
Haas is the clear winner in terms of cleantech/sustainability. There's a cleantech concentration, the overall curriculum emphasizes sustainable business practices, several extracurricular resources (Patagonia Case Competition, DOW Sustainability Innovation Challenge, connections to Levi's, and cleantech club), and many students interested in going into these industries self-select to Haas. Haas' location offers an advantage if you want to explore cleantech startups or VCs.
In terms of ROI, Darden is the obvious choice and a no-brainer.
Full ride into a high-caliber program where you see a potential culture fit and best possible opportunities for your post-MBA goals sounds like the right way to go here - my vote goes to Darden.

While Tuck and Haas have higher ranks (and some other less pronounced advantages) versus Darden, the full-scholarship versus no scholarship is a huge factor unless financial aspect of MBA is not important to you at all. Overall, Darden seems to be a no-brainer.
