SAN FRANCISCO, June 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sunrun (NASDAQ:RUN), America's largest provider of home battery storage, solar, and home-to-grid power plants, has been named to the Fortune 1000® for 2026, marking its debut on the annual ranking of the largest U.S. companies by revenue. Sunrun is the only home battery storage and solar installer on the list.

The recognition reflects Sunrun's disciplined growth strategy and strong financial performance in 2025, when the company generated $2.96 billion in total revenue, up 45% from the prior year, alongside record cash generation of $377 million¹ and the highest subscriber values in the company's history.

"Being named to the Fortune 1000 shows the strength of our subscription model and the trust we've earned from the more than 1.1 million customers who have chosen Sunrun to power their homes," said Sunrun CEO Mary Powell. "It's also a testament to the operational excellence and hard work of every team member who is helping deliver energy independence, cost savings, and peace of mind to American families."

Sunrun pioneered the energy-as-a-subscription model in 2007, making home solar accessible to Americans with no upfront costs. Since adding battery storage to its core offering, the company has grown into America's largest distributed power plant operator, enabling customers to store their own energy and earn compensation for participating in grid-supporting programs that send critical energy back to the grid when it's most needed.

Sunrun currently operates 18 distributed power plant programs across Texas, California, New York, Massachusetts, Puerto Rico, and elsewhere. In 2025, at least one of Sunrun's distributed power plants dispatched every day throughout the year, totaling more than 1,300 dispatches and 18 gigawatt-hours of energy delivered to the grid. Sunrun earns recurring revenue from utilities and grid operators for managing and deploying these programs.

Momentum has continued into 2026, with first quarter total revenue reaching $722 million, up 43% from the same period in 2025. Sunrun's storage attachment rate also reached a record 73%, with total installations representing approximately 4.3 gigawatt-hours of networked storage capacity.
