Enphase Energy Expands into South Africa with IQ8 Microinverters for High-Powered Solar Modules
12 Outubro 2023 - 9:00AM
Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENPH), a global energy technology
company and the world's leading supplier of microinverter-based
solar and battery systems, today announced it has entered the solar
market in South Africa with the introduction of IQ8™ Microinverters
for grid-tied residential and small commercial applications, with
peak output AC power of 480 W, to support newer high-powered solar
modules.
Solar energy in South Africa is experiencing unprecedented
growth. According to recent reports, installed rooftop solar
capacity increased from 938 MW in March 2022 to 4,412 MW in June
2023, representing a 349 percent increase in just over one
year.
IQ8 grid-tied microinverters are designed to maximize energy
production and can manage a continuous DC current of 14 amperes,
supporting higher powered solar modules through increased energy
harvesting. The newly available microinverters – IQ8HC™ and IQ8P™ –
are the most powerful microinverters available from Enphase
to-date. The products feature a peak output power of 384 W and 480
W, respectively, and are designed to seamlessly pair with a full
range of solar modules up to 670 W DC. All IQ8 series
microinverters activated in South Africa come with a 25-year
limited warranty.
“With demand for energy security growing rapidly in South
Africa, Enphase is delivering its newest and most innovative
products at a pivotal time for both homeowners and installers,”
said Ashley Beggs, director at JUP Solutions. “IQ8 grid-tied
microinverters are easy and fast to install so that we can quickly
unlock the power of solar for our customers. The IQ8
Microinverter’s flexible design also means that systems can easily
scale to meet evolving energy needs.”
“Enphase’s best-in-class solar microinverter technology
represents the highest quality product available that effectively
sells itself,” said Jean Pierre Greef, owner and managing director
at Zuider Energy. “We’re privileged to work with a company like
Enphase that stands for quality, service, and reliability, thus
allowing us to build a business for the future of energy.”
The Enphase® Energy System™ integrates with the IQ™ Gateway,
which can be connected to the internet to enable over-the-air
updates and connect to the Enphase® App monitoring platform. The IQ
Gateway and IQ® Microinverters make per-panel energy monitoring and
insights for operations and maintenance simple for homeowners and
small businesses.
“Homeowners in South Africa are turning to solar energy to
increase their energy independence and fortify their homes with
renewable, reliable energy,” said John Chirwa, technical director
at Smart Energy.
“Enphase is excited to work with world-class installers across
South Africa to tap into the adoption of home energy systems in the
coming years,” said Aaron Gordon, vice president and general
manager of the microinverter business unit at Enphase Energy. “The
introduction of Enphase grid-tied IQ8 products in the country will
provide customers with some of the most reliable, resilient, and
safest products on the market, offering more energy security and a
superior experience end-to-end.”
Installers and distributors in South Africa can order the IQ8
Microinverters for grid-tied applications today, which are
compatible with common third-party home battery brands available in
the country. For more information about Enphase Energy in South
