10 Stocks Powering Into 2026 With Explosive Gains

3. Fluence Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:FLNC)

Fluence Energy snapped a three-day losing streak on Friday, soaring 16.33 percent to close at $23.01 apiece as investors took heart from a broader market optimism, supported by analysts’ upbeat outlook for the solar and energy storage industry.

Despite the early expiration of tax credits, investment firm Goldman Sachs late last month gave a buy recommendation on Fluence Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:FLNC), as well as First Solar, Nextracker, and Array Technologies, on optimism that they would benefit from the strong demand for power from the artificial intelligence sector.

Goldman Sachs said it continues to favor utility-scale solar companies, especially in the US, amid the growing demand for energy from data centers which are likely to support project pipelines and earnings this year.

For 2026 alone, the investment firm said it expects utility-scale solar deployments to jump by 3 percent year-on-year, while revenue growth for companies could average 15 percent year-on-year.

Apart from Goldman Sachs, Fluence Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:FLNC) also earned bullish ratings recently from UBS, Citigroup, Jefferies, Susquehanna, Morgan Stanley, and Canaccord.
