Powerful technology at the heart of the
Enphase system.
Solar panels may be on top, but it's the inverter that does all the real work. Choosing an inverter technology is the most critical decision you'll make when going solar. Enphase Microinverters offer the most advanced inverter technology on the market, which means higher production, greater reliability, and unmatched intelligence.
How a Micro-inverter System works
Microinverters
The solar panels on your roof absorb sunshine and converter it in the form of DC (Direct Current) power. Tucked beneath each panel, a micro-inverter converts that DC power to Alternating Current (AC), the form of electricity your home can use.
Gateway
The Envoy is the brains of the system, gathering data from your micro-inverters and delivering it to Enlighten software. It communicates in the other direction, too, letting your installer pinpoint any issue remotely and delivering updates to your micro-inverters.
Monitoring
MyEnlighten is your window into your home energy. It turns Envoy's data into easy-to-use interface that lets you track your system's production and see your home energy usage.
Higher production, increased savings
Enphase microinverters are proven to produce more energy than other technologies.
-
Micro-inverters operate independently, so each panel performs to its fullest. One shaded or dirty panel won't affect the rest of the system.
-
Burst technology lets micro-inverters produce more at dawn, dusk, and in low-light conditions, for a longer solar day.
More reliable than central inverters
Because they function independently, micro-inverters are inherently more reliable; there's no single point of failure in an Enphase microinverter system. Plus, Enphase is obsessive about quality and control.
-
If one panel goes down, the others won't go down with it.
-
Enphase microinverters undergo the most rigorous product testing in the industry.
-
Enphase stand by their products with the industry's highest warranty.
Safe with alternating current
Micro-inverters are safer than other inverter technologies.
-
An all-AC system means no high-voltage DC power on your roof or coming down the side of your home.
-
Enphase microinverters are commonly chosen for schools, since they meet even the strictest government safety requirements.
Most cost-effective
In addition to the greater energy savings from higher production, Enphase microinverters are just a better long-term investment.
-
Enphase microinverters come with a 25-year warranty; string inverters need to be replaced at least once in the lifetime of the system.
-
Streamlined components make for quicker and less costly installations.
-
High-quality materials and remote problem-solving saves money on repairs.
