How does the Enphase Home Solar Energy System work?
Get the basics about Enphase microinverters
The Enphase Home Solar Energy System is a complete solution that produces, stores, monitors, controls, and analyzes the energy in your home.
There are four main components of an Enphase microinverter system:
-
Enphase microinverters are installed beneath each solar module and convert DC power to AC power. Each microinverter sends AC power to your home’s electrical panel (site load center) and transmits performance data over your home’s electrical wiring to the Envoy. Learn more about Enphase microinverters.
-
Enphase batteries work with the Envoy-S Metered, allowing you to store the excess energy that your solar panels produce during midday and save it to use later in the afternoon and evening when you need it. Learn more about solar storage batteries.
