Martin Automatic<\/strong>, the global supplier<\/a> of splicing and rewinding systems, has announced a recent investment in renewable energy<\/strong> at its headquarters in Rockford, IL, with the implementation of a solar panel project that will help power its manufacturing center.<\/p>\n

\"Martin<\/p>\n

The solar initiative<\/strong> had been under evaluation for several years culminating in roof modifications on its 170,000 sq ft facility<\/strong>, a white silicone reflective coating being applied, and a total of 2800 solar panels being installed in three different fixed planes to harness the sun\u2019s light most efficiently.<\/strong> \u00a0The 1.2-megawatt system, fully functional since 2022, represents one of the largest building solar installations in northern Illinois.<\/p>\n

The initial results indicate savings greater than were originally projected, with the company reporting a reduction in electricity costs of more than 75% from the same period last year. \u00a0Purchasing Director Chris Beard<\/strong>, who helped oversee the project, described it as \u201cthe meter running backwards.\u201d<\/em> <\/strong>\u00a0Excess electricity generated from the panels is returned to the local power company as part of a net metering program to offset costs during cloudier periods.<\/p>\n

Jonathan Bauch, Martin\u2019s CFO<\/strong>, said: \u201cThe renewable energy aspect is significant.\u00a0 We looked at this project as we do other capital outlays to be sure it would give us a return on our investment that would make us more efficient and positioned for greater success\u201d.<\/em> \u00a0Bauch cited similar examples of recent investments, such as energy-efficient LED lighting installations for the factory and offices as well as high-end automated machining centers and streamlined IT systems.<\/p>\n

Bauch concluded<\/strong>, \u201cMartin is the leader in the industries we serve because our automation technology helps our customers realize a high return on their investment. \u00a0And like our new solar project, those investments result in greater savings, less waste, and more sustainability\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

The solar panel installation atop Martin Automatic\u2019s headquarters is one of the largest installations of its kind in northern Illinois.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
