NeoVolta has formed a joint venture, NeoVolta Power, LLC, to manufacture BESS products in the US with an initial annual capacity of 2 GWh
To be scaled up to 8 GWh, the platform brings together NeoVolta, PotisEdge, and LONGi
The Georgia facility will begin mass production in mid-2026, focusing first on utility-scale systems
US-based solar energy storage solutions provider NeoVolta has launched a new manufacturing platform for battery energy storage systems (BESS) with 2 GWh initial annual production capacity. Part of the joint venture (JV) are Canada-headquartered BESS manufacturer PotisEdge and Chinese solar PV giant LONGi.
While NeoVolta holds a 60% stake in the JV NeoVolta Power, LLC, PotisEdge holds 20%. LONGi, which entered the energy storage domain in November 2025, holds a 62% majority stake in PotisEdge (see LONGi Expands Into Energy Storage With One-Stop Solution).
The remaining 20% stake is held by a group of strategic investors who will provide additional technical and operational support.
The JV will site the manufacturing facility in Georgia’s Pendergrass with plans to begin mass production in mid-2026. It will initially focus on producing the prismatic-cell battery pack assembly and DC container integration. These will support approximately 89 production personnel at steady-state initial capacity. The factory can be scaled up to 8 GWh annually.
“By launching domestic BESS manufacturing, we're directly addressing surging demand in utility-scale and C&I markets, enabling scalable, reliable solutions for grid stability, peak load management, and high-growth applications,” said NeoVolta CEO Ardes Johnson.
Initial production will cater to utility-scale systems, with the share of commercial and industrial (C&I) systems growing over time. NeoVolta is already present in the residential storage and backup applications space (see NeoVolta Showcases Residential Hybrid Inverter At RE+ 2025).
NeoVolta said the platform is designed to support multiple system configurations and product formats to meet evolving market requirements.
Capital funding to support the JV will initially come from a $13 million private placement anchored by Infinite Grid Capital that NeoVolta announced in November 2025.
“LONGi’s strategic expansion into energy storage reflects our commitment to delivering integrated, scalable clean-energy solutions,” said LONGi Green Energy’s Group Vice President and President of North America, Eric Luo.
He added, “This collaboration reflects an industry wide alignment that supports U.S. manufacturing, high quality system integration, and the next phase of growth in energy storage deployment.”
