Price and Consensus Generac Holdings Inc. price-consensus-chart | Generac Holdings Inc. QuoteThe Imperium fuel cell from WATT produces electricity via an electrochemical process from hydrogen molecules drawn from fuel choices, such as propane, natural gas or hydrogen, with no combustion and minimal pollutants.WATT is likely to benefit from Generac’s expertise in residential home resiliency and clean energy products. This will help WATT to fasten the deployment of its fuel cell power generation technology and provide easy access to Generac's installation partner base.In October, Generac acquired an industrial Internet of Things (IoT) software platform — Blue Pillar — for an undisclosed amount.The acquisition will aid Generac in providing monitoring and control capability as a “built-in feature” through the integration of the Blue Pillar platform with its suite of power-generation products and Generac Grid Services’ projects.Generac’s products are well-suited to accelerate the transition from traditional fossil fuel to clean, environment-friendly natural gas. The emergence of low-cost, environment-friendly natural gas generators has helped to increase the penetration of standby generators over the past decade in the light commercial market.For 2022, Generac expects revenue growth between 22% and 24% compared with the previous guidance of 36-40%.
