Aglow Power Energy Group, formally Aglow Power Electric, is an industrial electrical solution provider with specialization in medium-voltage and microgrid systems. Aglow Power was originally found as a market response to a niche and under-serviced energy sector struggling with interconnecting new state-of-the-art equipment with legacy assets living out its life-cycle. For example, an RFP was sent out to retrofit failing critical pumps and motors to a water treatment facility, however, the new equipment faced various  challenges with compatibility with existing ductwork, interconnection with existing fleet, motor control misalignments, and poor electrical distribution infrastructure. Aglow’s team focused for many years on solving interconnectivity of systems locally and at campus-wide capacity.

 

Twelve years after Aglow Power was formed, our leadership switched gears and decided to diversify our service portfolio to include design/build electrical systems for commercial real estate (CRE), tenant fit-outs, and develop strategic partnerships with private equity firms for capital improvement projects. Learning from our partners, our team continued to gain momentum in the CRE sector and began investing in Aglow’s own real estate projects within New England and eventually opened Red Spruce Holdings, our in-house real estate firm. 

 

When COVID closed down worksites and projects were canceled or deferred for several months, Aglow saw an opportunity to service another undeserved sector: electrical asset procurement and 3D model/printing of missing parts. Furthermore, Aglow Power also diversified its service portfolio to include IT and Fire Alarm, adjacent services that provide monthly maintenance agreements and solidified a strong company revenue stream. Aglow/Red Spruce continued to develop and grow the company’s assets from $2M to $33M from 2019 to 2024 before repositioning the company again, this time towards microgrids. 

 

Given Aglow/Red Spruce aggregated assets under management (AUM), our leadership was able to start leveraging asset capitalization and liquidity to onboard multi-million dollar federal/state projects in the energy sector. Once under contract, Aglow is able to provide microgrid options and show a healthy utility-scale project portfolio to potential microgrid clients. Currently, Aglow power is in California, Vermont, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Texas, and spearheading EPC opportunities in New Mexico and Puerto Rico.
