Nextpower agreed to acquire battery storage firm Prevalon Energy for up to $365 million, integrating 6 GWh of utility-scale storage into its solar systems for AI infrastructure and data centers. Wall Street firms including UBS, Northland, RBC and Jefferies raised price targets to $149–$170.
Nextpower has agreed to acquire Prevalon Energy for up to $365 million in a combination of stock and cash. This marks the largest transaction since its 2024 spin-off, positioning Nextpower to expand beyond solar tracking technology.
Prevalon has deployed over 6 GWh of utility-scale battery storage worldwide, which Nextpower plans to integrate with its proprietary solar systems to serve AI infrastructure and hyperscale data center power needs. The combined offering aims to provide scalable backup solutions.
Following the announcement, Northland lifted its target to $162, RBC to $149, Jefferies to $159, and UBS to $170, all maintaining Buy or Outperform ratings. These revisions reflect confidence in the company’s expanded energy hardware portfolio.
The acquisition is structured with no acquired cash and includes integration-related costs such as logistics, freight, and operational overhead. Analysts expect these expenses to be offset by revenue growth from new storage product deployments.
