Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the WTR Small-Cap Spotlight Podcast, Ardes Johnson, CEO of NeoVolta, joins host Tim Gerdeman, Co-Founder and Chief Marketing Officer, and analyst Eric Goldstein. NeoVolta is a Southern California-founded energy storage company scaling into a FEOC-compliant U.S. battery manufacturer, targeting 2 GWh of initial annual production capacity, scalable to 8 GWh, across residential, commercial and industrial, and utility-scale markets. Johnson explains the company's strategic transformation from a residential battery pioneer into an integrated, multi-vertical energy storage platform, anchored by the NeoVolta Power joint venture with Bloomberg Tier 1 integrator PotisEdge and global solar leader LONGi. The conversation walks through the path from construction to production at NeoVolta's Pendergrass, Georgia facility and what the utility and C&I-scale manufacturing buildout means for the company's growth trajectory. The episode closes with a look at how NeoVolta's manufacturing scale-up positions it within the broader U.S. battery supply chain.
