The Invesco Solar ETF (TAN), which tracks a swath of solar companies, gained 5% Thursday, while SolarEdge Technologies (SEDG) and First Solar (FSLR) advanced 9% and 6%, respectively. 

Tesla’s energy storage division produces residential and commercial batteries for customers looking to store solar energy. The company deployed 11 gigawatt hours of energy storage products in the quarter and 31.5 gigawatt hours in 2024. The Elon Musk-led company will release its full fourth-quarter results after the market closes on January 29.
