What Energous Wireless Power Solutions does

Energous Corporation (NASDAQ:WATT), operating as Energous Wireless Power Solutions, is a public company founded in 2012 and headquartered in San Jose, California. The company develops RF-based wireless power transfer (WPT) technology that delivers continuous over-the-air power to IoT devices, eliminating the need for batteries, wires, and cables. Its core product platform comprises PowerBridge transmitter systems (LITE at 1W and PRO at 8W EIRP, in directional and omni-directional variants), the EN4100 System-on-Chip RF transmitter IC and EN3210 RF power amplifier IC, battery-free e-Sense sensor tags for asset tracking and environmental monitoring, and the e-Compass cloud-based management platform. The company holds the first FCC Part 18 certification for power-at-a-distance wireless transmission and has regulatory approvals in 112+ countries, supported by over 200 granted US patents.

Energous generates revenue through three streams: hardware sales of PowerBridge transmitters, ICs, and e-Sense tags; subscription-based e-Compass cloud platform services; and NRE/custom network design services. Pricing is quote-based with multi-year enterprise contracts, and go-to-market is predominantly direct enterprise field sales targeting Fortune 10 and large enterprise customers, supplemented by AWS Marketplace, distribution partners (DigiKey, Cisper, Sekorm), and technology integrations with partners such as Wiliot, e-peas, Veea, and InPlay. The company also provides custom engineering services for personalized network deployments.

The customer base is concentrated in retail and logistics/supply chain verticals, with active deployments at two Fortune 10 customers (a U.S. retailer scaling from 410 to 4,700+ locations and a global e-commerce fulfillment company with 14+ international installations and 35 planned facilities in 2026). Additional use cases include cold chain monitoring (Harps Food Stores), smart farming, healthcare, industrial IoT, and smart home applications. As of Q1 2026, Energous reported $37M in cash following a $31.9M ATM equity raise, achieved its fifth consecutive quarter of revenue growth, and was added to the Russell 3000 and Russell 2000 indexes.
