Magid Glove, a leading provider of work gloves, personal protective equipment, first aid products, and protective clothing, is a company that prioritizes innovation. In this blog post, we’ll explore how Intelligent Generation’s technology is transforming the way Magid Glove operates, while also benefiting the environment.
Harnessing the Power of the Sun
Magid Glove’s impressive 700,000 square foot facility in Romeoville, Illinois boasts a massive flat roof, making it the perfect candidate for a solar array. At the time of installation, solar power wasn’t a common concept in the Midwest, but Magid Glove recognized the potential. The company not only installed a solar array but also took the advice of their solar developer, Convergence Energy, and implemented a battery storage system, in which they entrusted Intelligent Generation to manage and control.
More Than Just Backup Power
The battery storage system does more than just provide backup power in case of outages. Intelligent Generation’s technology allows Magid Glove to participate in ancillary service programs. These programs help to balance the energy grid, and Magid Glove benefits from an additional revenue stream.
A Win for the Environment and Business
Magid Glove’s investment in solar and battery storage has resulted in significant environmental benefits. The company has greatly reduced its reliance on the grid, lowering its carbon footprint. And, as an added bonus, their commitment to sustainability has impressed their customers, leading to positive public relations.
The Importance of the Right Partner
Magid Glove attributes a great deal of their success to partnering with Intelligent Generation. They credit Intelligent Generation’s expertise and trustworthiness as being vital to the project’s success. “We were lucky to come across Intelligent Generation. They have really been a valuable asset to not only the battery project, but to the whole concept of what we’ve been doing. They are very knowledgeable, and we trust them explicitly.” said Harvey Cohen, President of Magid Glove.
In Conclusion
Magid Glove’s story is a great example of how a company can embrace innovation to benefit the environment and their bottom line. By partnering with Intelligent Generation, they’ve achieved impressive results and set a great example for other businesses.
