Sunnova Energy International, Inc. ("Sunnova") (NYSE: NOVA), an
industry-leading adaptive energy services company, announced today
that it powered the homes of almost 3,000 customers in the Houston
area during and after Hurricane Beryl from July 8 to July 15 while
the local utility grids were knocked out and unable to deliver
power to Texans. During these eight days, Sunnova solar + storage
customers generated 485,249 kWh of energy.
“We’re proud of our proven track record of helping keep the
power on during disasters, and pleased to have powered our fellow
Houstonians during Hurricane Beryl,” said William J. (John) Berger,
President and Chief Executive Officer at Sunnova. “At a critical
moment for our city’s power infrastructure, Sunnova had the
capability to deliver when the local utilities could not, and as a
result, nearly 3,000 Houston-area customers were able to keep the
lights on, their food cold and their families safe. This reinforces
the notion that during grid outages, a solar + storage system
protects homeowners and provides peace of mind with clean,
resilient power that comes backed by the best service in the
industry.”
The strength and resiliency of Sunnova’s solar + storage systems
have been battle-tested in numerous storms throughout the United
States and its territories, proving to be an excellent source of
dependable electricity. 96% of Sunnova SunSafe® systems in the
Houston area required no repairs or maintenance in the week
following Hurricane Beryl, and for those that did, Sunnova
dispatched crews immediately to perform repairs.
“Solar + storage adoption continues to accelerate as people see
its value as a resilient source of energy,” said Michael Grasso,
Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer at Sunnova. “We
believe the distributed energy from these aggregated power plants
will play an increasing role in US utility grids where our solar +
storage systems supplement the centralized electric system to drive
increased resiliency and when the grid fails, to ensure reliable
off grid power to our customers.”
Serving an extensive customer base of over 400,000 customers
spread across 51 U.S. states and territories, Sunnova remains
dedicated to advancing the energy landscape through its mission of
powering energy independence.
