Sunnova Energy International Inc. (“Sunnova”) (NYSE: NOVA), a
leading U.S. residential solar and storage service provider, has
partnered with National Grid (NYSE: NGG) and SolarEdge Technologies
Inc. (“SolarEdge”) (NASDAQ: SEDG) to utilize its fleet of solar and
storage assets in New England to help improve power quality in
National Grid’s service area. Sunnova’s aggregated residential
solar and storage portfolio delivers over 150 GWh of clean and
reliable energy per year to New England’s homeowners and its grid,
and now this portfolio of distributed energy resources (DERs) will
work to make the grid more efficient by strengthening its
resiliency and reliability. Sunnova and SolarEdge will provide
voltage support across Massachusetts and Rhode Island, proving that
distributed resources can unlock additional value to
ratepayers.

“Sunnova’s ability to deliver solutions that will create a
modern power grid reaffirms that leveraging DERs can offer
increasing value to the grid and ultimately to homeowners, when
deployed at scale,” said Michael Grasso, EVP, Chief Marketing and
Growth Officer at Sunnova. “This first of its kind solution aims to
save homeowners money, increase New England’s grid efficiency and
support National Grid on its path to achieving Net Zero by
2050.”
Over the last decade, the industry has built approximately 838
MW of residential distributed energy assets in Massachusetts and 58
MW in Rhode Island, according to Wood Mackenzie. To create the grid
of tomorrow, DERs, especially solar and battery storage, will need
to work together to support the grid in meeting its energy
objectives while providing consumers with energy independence. This
partnership will enable Sunnova to help the utility reduce
distribution system losses and allow for more efficient delivery of
power to all consumers in National Grid’s service area.
“National Grid’s continued efforts to further integrate
distributed energy resources will be accelerated by this effort
which will leverage DERs interconnected to the grid to optimize
power quality, which will reduce costs for all customers,” said
John Isberg, Vice President of Customer Sales and Solutions at
National Grid.
“SolarEdge’s work on transitioning to a stable, clean,
cost-effective grid is being realized through this unprecedented
program across New England,” said Peter Mathews, General Manager of
North America at SolarEdge. “Our DC optimized architecture, which
has been deployed by multiple utilities, is field-proven to provide
greater efficiency and accuracy. We strongly value partnerships
like this that remain essential to advancing the full value of
distributed energy resources.”
