IQ8 Series

Our smartest microinverter yet.

Microinverter-Hero_IQ8+_MC4_US-MX-mobile

Our new IQ8 Series Microinverters are the industry’s first split-phase, grid-forming solar panel microinverter, capable of converting DC power to AC power efficiently.

Full family of microinverters designed for DC modules up to 530 W

Eliminate battery sizing restrictions

Operate in grid-tied or off-grid modes with our proprietary application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC)

Small things make a big difference

Built with advanced 55 nm technology, our microchip has high-speed digital logic and super-fast response times to changing loads and grid events—alleviating constraints on battery sizing for home energy systems.

Future-proof your customer’s investment

With IQ8 Series Microinverters, Enphase Energy Systems are flexible and scalable. Start with an IQ8 Solar Only system and, as energy needs grow, simply add Enphase IQ Batteries and an IQ Load Controller.

Why are microinverters better?

No single point of failure. If a system with a central inverter fails, solar production will stop completely. With one microinverter per module, solar production keeps working even if a microinverter fails.

Maximum power per module. Whether it’s leaves, dirt, snow, or cloudy days—obstructions happen. With IQ Microinverters, each solar panel operates independently while central inverter systems limit their production to the weakest module.

A bright idea,
even in low light

If shadows or clouds pass overhead, IQ Microinverters use breakthrough Burst Mode technology to capture more energy in low-light conditions.

Certified for rain or shine

IQ Microinverters are NEMA 6 certified and recommended by FEMA, so they’re rated for just about anything Mother Nature can throw at them.

Industry-leading warranty

Enphase IQ Microinverters are backed by an industry-leading 25-year limited warranty.

Safety first

IQ Microinverters are inherently safer because they operate at the same low-voltage AC power as a typical home. Our systems never contain high-voltage DC power.

Responsive and responsible

IQ Microinverters include built-in rapid shutdown to help keep utility workers and first responders safe. In an emergency, solar power can be turned off instantly and easily.

Everything just clicks

Enphase solar uses plug-and-play technology to make your installations faster and easier. Everything snaps together with a click—even if you are wearing gloves.
