Our Story

2015

Where We Began

Founded in 2015, Ovanova, Inc. partnered with churches, schools, and nonprofits to host online events to raise awareness about energy resilience and independence. For every attendee, we donated to their chosen cause—raising over $100K and starting thousands of conversations about local energy solutions.

Installing Energy Systems—Nationwide and Beyond

In 2021, we founded Ovanova Solar Corporation, an unlimited general and electrical contractor, to bring our installation quality in line with our educational mission. By developing expertise in microgrid installation and remote training, we’ve delivered private power plants in 27 states, interconnected with over 60 utilities, and expanded internationally to Kenya.

Growing to Serve Disadvantaged and Distressed Rural Communities

In 2023–2024, Ovanova launched a program to help small businesses and agricultural producers in underserved rural areas access grants and tax credits with no upfront cost. The initiative generated over 100 applications nationwide, representing more than $100 million in solar and storage microgrid projects.

2025

Innovating for Tomorrow

As our projects and expertise grew in scale and complexity, so did the need for better tools. Designing and installing microgrids across the country showed us where the gaps were—especially in hardware, software, and secure U.S.-based supply chains.


In response, we began developing our own technologies in partnership with top engineering and cybersecurity teams. These innovations are built to meet real-world demands, protect critical infrastructure, and support a more resilient energy future.

Our patent-pending mobile microgrids provide portable power where and when it’s needed most.

Grid Guardian AI Monitoring and Maximization Software

Our software provides real time monitoring so the power plants we deploy function as promised while maximizing value for the microgrid owner and stability for the grid.

NERD (National Energy Resilience Device)

Currently in development, this dual-use power electronics system will be built in the U.S. with American-made components to support next-generation energy storage—advancing grid security, property power, and defense applications.
