Enphase Energy developed the Enphase Energy Micro Inverters. These Micro Inverters have revolutionized solar power systems. Each solar panel becomes it's own power system completely independent of other panels.

—Why use one micro-inverter per solar panel?

The Enphase Micro-Inverter system is the world’s most technologically advanced inverter system for use with grid-tie, or utility-connected, solar electric systems.

One of biggest advantages to using micro-inverters is that instead of sizing (and therefore limiting) your inverter to a specific number and overall wattage of solar panels, with Enphase, you use one micro-inverter per panel.  To increase the size of your solar electric system, you can simply add single (or any number of) panels of different wattages and even different manufacturers.  You simply add one micro-inverter per panel.

With the Enphase Micro-Inverter system, you do not have to invest in another larger inverter when you are ready to expand;  just add one micro-inverter per panel.

Ease of Design and Installation

Solar electric systems using Enphase Micro-Inverters are simple to design and simple to install:

• There are no string calculations necessary. 
• Individual solar panels may be installed in any combinationof module quantity, type, orientation and age.  
• Each micro-inverter quickly mounts on the solar panel racking, directly beneath each panel. 
• Low voltage DC wires connect from the solar panel directly to the co-located micro-inverter, eliminating the risk of the installer’s exposure to lethal 600VDC power.
• Watch a training video here. See Installation pictures.
  
  Enphase Supports a Great Online Monitoring System called Enphase Enlighten.
  

By registering for Enphase Enlighten, a web-based monitoring and analytics system, you can monitor each solar panel in your array from anywhere you have internet access.

The Enlighten website provides a wide range of information on your system and the individual solar panels.  A graph of the solar array provides info on each module, including current and lifetime performance.

Enphase Micro-Inverters Maximize Power Output.

With the Enphase Micro-Inverter System, if one of your solar panels is shaded, or damaged, you do not affect the output of the rest of your solar array. All panels perform to their greatest capacity.


Each Solar Module has its own Enphase Inverter.

The Micro-Inverter concept insures that there is no single point of failure in your solar electric system.  Enphase Micro-Inverters are designed to operate at full power at temperatures as high as 65 degrees C (150 degrees F).
