Intelligent
Highway Solutions is an interesting story of business evolution, innovation and
expansion. Led by a management team of electrical contractors, whose resumes
also boast years of experience in the business world, the company has
demonstrated unique flexibility in the application of its expertise.
IHSI
was initially launched to develop and implement proprietary wireless vehicle
detection systems designed to boost efficiency in the nation’s roadways. The
intelligent transportations (ITS) industry offers incredible potential, valued
at approximately $48 billion as cities and states feeling the strain of
tightening budgets seek new technologies to maximize existing highway capacity.
For
IHSI, deployment of its ITS initiative cultivated strong company relationships
with the transportation markets of local and state governments, enabled a
distribution agreement with SCS Lighting Solutions, and ultimately became a
gateway for the company’s new business venture: lighting for the booming
medical marijuana industry.
Through
the SCS Lighting Solutions partnership, IHSI aimed to offer municipalities
highly efficient, customized, long-lasting lighting solutions with the
potential to save hundreds of thousands of dollars in energy and maintenance
costs. Through this application, however, IHSI was presented with a unique
business opportunity to implement cutting-edge lighting technology to
accelerate the growth of cannabis plants. As it turns out, IHSI was already
armed with the necessary expertise and infrastructure to provide superior lighting
capabilities for this specific purpose.
Generating
annual sales of approximately $1.5 billion in the U.S. alone, the medical
marijuana industry is currently one of the world’s fastest growing markets.
With demand for quality marijuana on the rise, cannabis nurseries are seeking
out efficient cultivation methods and technologies, which are vital to the
growth and quality of the plants as well as to the success of the grower.
Metal
halide and sodium HID lamps lighting fixtures are widely used in the medical
marijuana industry, though these solutions require significant energy
consumption. IHSI’s custom lighting solution, on the other hand, uses
approximately 85% less power and provides more than 400% of the required energy
in the proper wavelengths for photosynthesis versus HID lamps.
Energy
efficiency also equates to far less energy dispelled as heat, which cuts
cooling costs. When you consider the fact that many plant nurseries have more
than 1,000 lights for grow purposes, the savings in cooling costs paired with
savings gained from using lighting fixtures with minimal energy consumption
creates incredible cost savings opportunity.
IHSI
recently shipped its 300-watt grow light prototype to an industry-leading
medical cannabis facility licensed by the city of Oakland, California. With
three times the power of its previously tested 100-watt lighting system, IHSI’s
300-watt solution is expected to contribute to large, healthy yields of
cannabis.
The
new lighting system is enhanced with increased lumens and photon density to
achieve energy savings and provide the plant nursery with the necessary color
spectrum and light to create an optimal growing environment and is expected to
result in significant energy savings as compared to the existing lighting
solutions on the market.
Backed
by a management team of electrical contractor/businessmen with an eye for
opportunity, IHSI is well-positioned to cultivate sustainable growth in a
critical segment of the medical marijuana industry
