Customers are looking for alternative ways to generate and store the power needed to address the challenges associated with an outdated electrical grid. Generac Grid Services will enable the company to provide a range of solutions and a new value stream for its customers.
Generac Grid Services was formed primarily through the acquisition of Enbala Power Networks in October 2020. Enbala’s Concerto software platform is an open solution for virtual power plants and distributed energy resource management systems. With this platform, power generation and storage products can be organized as part of a distributed energy solution.
Generac’s home standby generators, commercial generators, and PWRcell solar + battery storage systems are being built as Smart Grid Ready, allowing its customers to sell power back to the grid and offset their energy expenses.
The Smart Grid Ready capabilities are being offered through Generac’s Enbala Concerto platform. Climate change and an aging electrical grid with frequent power outages are boosting growth opportunities for the company.
The stock currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
