Read MoreHide Full Article
Enphase Energy, Inc. (ENPH - Free Report) announced that it has started shipping IQ8 Microinverters in Belgium, with peak output AC power of 384 W, to support newer, high-powered solar modules.
The company provides the necessary flexibility for the range of solar modules in the market, helping more homeowners to make the switch to clean, reliable energy.
Significance of IQ8 Microinverters
IQ8 Microinverter will allow for even more customization options for residential energy systems, as its latest series is compatible with powerful solar modules.
With their ability to handle a constant DC current of 14 amperes, IQ8 Microinverters are engineered to optimize energy yield and accommodate higher-powered solar modules by increasing energy harvesting.
The three new microinverters, namely IQ8MC, IQ8AC, and IQ8HC, with peak output power of 330 W, 366 W and 384 W, respectively, are made to work in unison with a wide variety of solar modules up to 560 W DC. Enphase is offering a 25-year limited warranty on these IQ8 Microinverters that were activated in Belgium.
Prospects in Belgium
Apart from IQ Microinverters, the Enphase Energy Systems in Belgium also include IQ Batteries. This comprehensive solution enables households to store energy for future use and avoid the costly grid energy.
In Belgium, homeowners are looking to save money on their energy bills, and priority is given to energy systems that can be monitored remotely.
