AC solutions are compatible with AC energy storage solutions. When using Enphase Storage, you can see the energy flows on Enlighten, Enphase’s system monitoring application. If you choose a different storage solution provider, you will need to use their monitoring application to see the energy flows of the battery.​

A photovoltaic (PV) solar system is comprised of solar panels, racks for placing the panels on your roof, electrical wiring and an inverter. From sunrise to sunset, the solar panels generate electricity (DC) which is sent to an inverter. The inverter converts the DC electricity into alternating current (AC), which is the type of electricity required for household use. The AC power is delivered directly to your home’s main electrical service panel for use by you and your family.

You can power your entire house using solar energy. By installing solar panels, you can generate electricity from sunlight and run your home's appliances, lighting, and other electrical systems. An inverter converts the solar-generated electricity into a usable form, and batteries can store excess energy for use during cloudy days or at night. Factors like your energy consumption, the size of the solar system, available sunlight, and location are all important. Our professional installers will help you determine the right setup for your needs.

There are several financing options for solar installations, including solar loans, solar leases, and Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs).

A solar energy system typically comprises components such as solar panels, an inverter, batteries (if desired), and a grid connection (where relevant). Our installer partners will meet with you to design your system based on your needs and wishes.

All AC module installations must be Internet connected for the monitoring to receive the 25-year microinverter warranty. This Internet connection reports data to the Enphase monitoring platform, Enlighten on a per microinverter/module basis. The performance of each microinverter and module is visible to the installer via Enlighten and alerts are provided for any faulty equipment, such as an under-performing PV module or a faulty microinverter.
