Home solar and battery system control

Enphase Power Control software can integrate with the Enphase Energy System in North America. Enphase Power Control dynamically controls the power produced by an Enphase Energy System. This gives installers flexibility in system design to build larger systems, avoid costly main panel upgrades, and meet utility and national electrical code (NEC) requirements. Enphase Power Control software enables the installation of more solar panels or batteries without requiring expensive main panel upgrades to meet NEC requirements, helping homeowners save on labor and material costs. Enphase Power Control software is designed to enable second and third generation IQ Batteries to export stored electricity to the grid for economic benefit, maximizing the system value under rate structures like California’s NEM 3.0. Enphase batteries are now listed with the California Energy Commission (CEC) as power control compliant with the export operating mode. By controlling the power of a system, the Enphase Power Control software enables installers to build a battery up to 80kWh capacity with the IQ Battery 5P, doubling the capacity when compared with prior Enphase battery generations. The Enphase batteries are listed with the CEC as power control compliant with the import-only operating mode and the IQ8 Microinverters are certified for power export limiting (PEL). This enables easy interconnection with utilities without requiring customers to pay for expensive utility transformer upgrades. Enphase Power Control software is UL-certified and can support a variety of solar-only and solar-plus storage combinations, including grid-tied and grid-forming applications.
