The Green Economy is nothing new to ACES International

The downtown Whitmore Lake-based firm has made its money around an ethos of sustainability since 1997. That includes everything from installing alternative energy-generating systems (solar panels and wind turbines) to weatherizing homes. It's now looking to break into the lithium-ion battery improvement game.

"For anything to be sustainable you need to be diverse," says Tina Greenough, president and CEO of ACES International.

She had climbed corporate ladders in the engineering and IT sectors for 13 years before striking out on her own with ACES International. "I thought I learned enough that I could do it myself," Greenough says.

Today ACES International employs 14 people and has job openings for six more, specifically those in the trades that can help make buildings more energy efficient. The company has been able to double its staff in the last year as government spending has taken a greater interest in all facets of sustainability.

ACES International is also looking at opening a New Jersey office and moving into a bigger building in downtown Whitmore Lake.
