Standard noun formation from the adjective 'sustainable' (sustain + -able) meaning the state or quality of being sustainable.
Etymology
Sustainability comes from sustain, which originally meant to 'hold up' or 'keep' and shares the root tenere meaning 'to hold', as in the common word retain. So, sustainability is about being able to 'hold up' or keep a system going over time without using up or harming resources.
