3M has announced the formation of its new Renewable Energy Division. This organization will enable 3M to maximize the company’s technologies, products and responsiveness to the fast-changing renewable energy industry. The products within the new division will include products currently sold to the industry, new-to-the-world products invented for the renewable energy market, and products adapted from existing technologies. The division falls within 3M’s Industrial and Transportation Business and will focus on Energy Generation and Energy Management.

“3M’s new operation will serve the renewable energy market globally and bring the best products and technologies from a single source to customers worldwide,” said John "J. C." Cason, owner of U. S. Window Films, which serves residential and commercial customers throughout the entire Southeast, including North Florida and Southeast Georgia.  Cason and his staff just returned from the annual 3M Prestige Dealers Conference in Las Vegas.

In Energy Management, 3M received the very first window film patent in 1966 and continues to be a world leader in window film technology over four decades later. Today, 3M’s window film portfolio has grown to include solar management, safety and security and decorative technology platforms that are sold in the Automotive, Commercial Building and Residential market segments throughout the world.

The Prestige Series, one of 3M’s innovative lines of window film products, are the first clear and non-metal based window films to significantly reduce heat and ultraviolet rays entering a building. These films block up to 66 percent of heat penetrating the window, resulting in less stress on air-conditioning and lower energy costs. 3M continues to break new ground with innovative products and services in the ever-changing, and rapidly expanding energy management market to meet customer needs.
