"Our panels can withstand extreme heat and the coldest of winters," mentions Morrissey. Displaying such expertise in roofing architecture, AGP has a slew of products designed to help an establishment become self-sufficient in their energy usage. Some of the company's innovations that enable solar and thermal energy generation are Tall Slates, Building Integrated Thermal Energy Roofing Systems (BITERS), Sunslates5, and Sunslates6. The BITERS system, for instance, is a heat-transferring tool developed by Atlantis USA and is owned by SPDLabs. Along with these solutions, AGP also provides commercial buildings with the canopy and facade BIPV glass products to deliver the most comprehensive, holistic energy solution.To further elucidate on AGP's capabilities, Morrissey recalls one of their biggest commercial projects: providing an aesthetic lighting and canopy glass for the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. "We covered an approximate 32.8 feet-wide perimeter--from the nosebleed seats to the top of the compound--with our solar and LED lighting products," he says. Depending on the football teams' color themes, the LED panels brighten the night sky with an array of powerful lights, or as Morrissey puts it, "color mood rings."With a robust understanding of renewable energy's abilities, AGP intends to continue innovating and delivering new solar and thermal-based products for residential and commercial purposes. Moreover, with the advent of eco-friendly transit systems like the JPod, the company seeks to invest its solar technology in green transportation solutions. For now, the JPod--a nascent concept of vehicles, where two to four passengers can travel in a compact wagon that is suspended from a bridge like a monorail--is the primary focus. "This innovation promises a self-sustained, non-polluting mode of transport, which is vital today," says Morrissey. AGP is convinced that renewable energy is the true goal for an environmentally sustainable future, and will continue to develop solar energy-based solutions to serve that cause.
