After continued growth in demand for its sustainable energy storage solutions, GivEnergy is now ramping up its global expansion through South Africa.
The North Staffordshire based firm is currently the UK’s best-selling battery storage brand.
Now, in a joint venture with investment titan Invicta Holdings, GivEnergy is set to begin selling its popular battery storage products to South African customers.
GivEnergy has a five-year strong reputation as the UK’s top-selling provider of domestic battery storage systems. The company manufactures premium energy solutions that allow customers to run their properties on clean, low-cost battery power. With the global appetite for sustainable energy only growing, the company has already expanded into Europe, Australasia, Asia, and now into South Africa.
Jason Howlett, GivEnergy Group CEO, comments:
“The momentum behind the green energy movement is growing at pace. We at GivEnergy have long been leading the charge in empowering energy freedom for the billpayer, and we’re now seeing a demand for storage solutions boom around the world.
Ensuring energy security in South Africa has its unique challenges. We’re delighted to partner with the Invicta Group to help solve these issues.
Governments across the world are looking to augment existing solar and renewables with energy storage to ensure surety of grid supply. As a result, they’re beginning to incentivise energy storage and incorporate the technology into policy. So, the GivEnergy growth journey is ever accelerating. Now, we’re enormously excited to continue advancing our clean energy cause globally.”
GivEnergy South Africa is launching as a 50:50 joint venture with Invicta Holdings. Invicta Holdings invests in and manages leading businesses involved in the supply of original equipment. And, with its vast network of contacts and resources, Invicta’s local knowledge will prove a key competitive advantage.
Invicta Holdings will support the delivery of GivEnergy systems — enabling the company to be a leading energy storage provider in South Africa via distribution partners and wholesalers in the region.
Steven Joffe, CEO of Invicta Holdings, comments:
“We are pleased to embark on this journey with GivEnergy. When it comes to the global race to achieve net zero carbon emissions, there is no time to lose. So, we are proud to join forces with an innovative company like GivEnergy and help set a new player up to the challenge of making sustainably powered homes a reality in South Africa.
For Invicta Holdings, this agreement delivers on our commitment to purposeful investment. GivEnergy is able to open the way for energy-independent homes. Now, with our support, they can rapidly tap into the vibrant South African market.”
GivEnergy’s expansion into South Africa is part of a sustained hypergrowth curve. Within the last 18 months, the company has purchased a new three-storey HQ, the neighbouring building to this HQ (for further growth), new warehousing facilities, and strategic land acquisitions. At the same time, the company is building two new UK manufacturing facilities.
As a reflection of this growth, GivEnergy has been busy expanding into Europe, Asia and Australasia , while continuing to grow its presence domestically. Now, GivEnergy’s joint venture with Invicta Holdings in South Africa represents another exciting chapter – testament to the company’s dedication to creating a world where energy doesn’t cost the earth.
