Summary
Engie EPS sees microgrids and energy storage as key to its growth, but expects a short-term disruption because its manufacturing facilities are in Italy, which has been heavily hit by the coronavirus (COVID-19).

The company reported 2019 revenues and other income of $21.6 million, up 29% year over year, with a 127% increase in its project pipeline.
