Eguana Technologies Inc. (EGT:TSX.V; EGTYF:OTC) is a Canadian clean energy company pioneering residential and small commercial energy storage systems designed to operate at the grid edge.
Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Eguana has developed a fully integrated hardware-and-software platform that enables homeowners, installers, and utilities to deploy scalable, distributed energy resources.
With thousands of proprietary systems already installed in North America, Australia, and Europe, the company is positioning itself as a key enabler of the accelerating energy transition. By combining high-performance storage technology with virtual power plant (VPP) fleet management software, Eguana is targeting both utility-scale distributed resource aggregation and consumer backup markets.
By deploying on-site energy capacity directly where it is needed most, Eguana connects consumers, contractors, and utilities, providing critical solutions as electricity demand surges in the age of electrification.
About the Company
Eguana's business model addresses one of the most pressing challenges facing utilities today: how to manage rising electricity demand from electrification of vehicles, heating, and industrial systems without overbuilding costly centralized infrastructure. Its distributed energy storage systems absorb and deliver power on demand, creating flexible grid-edge capacity that supports real-time load balancing, local resiliency, and integration of renewables.
The company's systems are more than just consumer backup products; they are designed for utility-grade reliability, supporting applications such as local capacity relief, fast frequency response, and integration with virtual power plants.
Eguana has validated its technology through partnerships with global leaders including Mercedes-Benz, Duracell, and the Itochu Corporation. A recent collaboration with Itron successfully integrated Eguana's storage solutions directly into smart meters using open standards. This interoperability allows utilities to control distributed resources with greater visibility and security, opening the door to scaled adoption.
With a production capacity of over 24,000 systems annually and relationships with major North American utilities , Eguana is positioned to scale into a utility driven market projected to exceed +US$100 billion by 2030.
