The global energy storage market is projected to grow to $546 billion by the year 2035, according to a report from Lux Research. One of the largest markets will likely be residential energy storage, with an expected compound annual growth rate of 76% and $8 billion revenue increase over the next three years. Mentioned in today’s commentary: NeoVolta (OTCQB: NEOV), Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA), SolarEdge Technologies (NASDAQ: SEDG) and Enphase Energy (NASDAQ: ENPH).
Along with plug-in vehicles, residential energy storage was expected to account for most of the growth. Analyst Chloe Holzinger, one of the report’s lead authors, said that the energy storage market as a whole is “poised for a massive increase in annual revenue and deployment capacity.” Innovative technologies reaching commercialization will drive this increase.
With the energy storage market projected to see dramatic growth, among the most active companies in the industry are NeoVolta, Tesla, SolarEdge and Enphase Energy.
NeoVolta (OTCQB: NEOV) – San Diego based NeoVolta, the only pure-play energy storage company on this list, recently announced the delivery of initial orders worth $473,000 to PMP Energy of Nevada. Earlier this year, the two companies signed a three-year exclusive distribution agreement, in exchange for PMP Energy providing a minimum of up to $15 million in purchase orders. , PMP Energy will provide dealers with training and certification to install NeoVolta systems in homes.
NeoVolta, which recently began trading, is around $3.49 per share. It manufactures patent-pending residential energy storage systems. NeoVolta’s home energy storage system was named one of Solar Power World’s Top Solar Storage Products of 2019.
