NeoVolta opens 4-GWh battery storage factory in Georgia through joint venture with PotisEdge
NeoVolta Power, a joint venture between NeoVolta and PotisEdge, a LONGi Green Energy company, opened a 4-GWh lithium battery energy storage system manufacturing site in Pendergrass, Georgia, in September, with a second line planned to reach 8 GWh as orders warrant. CEO Ardes Johnson said the site is designed to support FEOC-compliant and domestic content-eligible solutions, that NeoVolta holds the controlling interest and 100% of the board, and that the FEOC rules are still being finalized by the IRS. He said U.S.-made cells are not yet available at the needed volume or price, so Chinese-sourced cells have bridged the gap in the near term.
