Sunnova Energy International Inc. (NYSE: NOVA):

2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders Date

Sunnova Energy International Inc. (NYSE: NOVA), one of the leading U.S residential solar and energy storage service providers, announced that it will hold its 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2020 Annual Meeting") on May 20, 2020. The time and location of the 2020 Annual Meeting will be specified in Sunnova's 2020 proxy statement.

Stockholders of record of Sunnova common stock at the close of business on March 23, 2020 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the meeting. Sunnova expects the notice of the 2020 Annual Meeting and Definitive Proxy Statement will be mailed to stockholders on or about April 13, 2020. In addition, the Definitive Proxy Statement and 2019 Annual Report ("Form 10-K") will also be available online on the Investor Relations section of Sunnova's website at www.sunnova.com on or after April 13, 2020.

Because the expected date of the 2020 Annual Meeting represents a change of more than 30 days from the deemed anniversary of Sunnova's preceding year's annual stockholders' meeting, Sunnova has set a new deadline for the receipt of stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), for inclusion in Sunnova's proxy materials for the 2020 Annual Meeting. To be considered for inclusion, such proposals must be received in writing by Sunnova before the close of business on February 20, 2020.
