NRG Energy Closes Strategic Acquisition of Personal Solar Products Market Leader
September 18,2014
NRG Energy, Inc. has completed its previously announced acquisition of Goal Zero, a consumer products company which offers a suite of personal solar devices
"Goal Zero's line of solar and energy storage products combine the best features of solar energy: a readily portable energy source for our customers' mobile lifestyles, reliability disconnected from the increasingly unreliable grid and, of course, ready access to the sun's inexhaustible supply of free and clean energy," said David Crane, President and CEO of NRG.
"The acquisition of Goal Zero enables us to put power in people's hands and deepens our relationship with our customers as we enter an era of personal power. This is a time when consumers increasingly take control over how their power is generated and how much they use,” said Elizabeth Killinger, President of NRG Retail. “With Goal Zero products, consumers are free, untethered and powered wherever they go."
