Enphase Microinverters and IQ Battery 5P Offering Seamless Power to Aussie Homes

While the Renovate or Rebuild team met with Jesse Raeburn to get a firsthand look at Enphase’s solar and storage system in action, Rosh was busy touring the Enphase Melbourne office. Renowned for its incredible microinverter technology, Enphase has stepped up its residential power offerings with the IQ Battery 5P. This powerful battery integrates its microinverter technology across a distributed architecture platform. This allows for custom solar and battery sizing according to your needs with safer battery technology.

Under the hood: The Enphase IQ Battery 5P

The IQ Battery 5P is like no other. Housed inside the unit are six IQ8D-BAT microinverters; each offering redundancies should one of the microinverters fail. This platform, otherwise known as distributed architecture, provides continuous power with modular options. This means that, when paired with Enphase microinverters, you can design a solar energy and storage system to suit your home’s needs. There are no limitations to the size or scope of the system.

Enphase IQ Battery 5P

Utilising Lithium iron phosphate (LFP), the battery is cobalt-free and safer. With no moving parts or fans, the battery passively cools for safer operation. The IQ Battery 5P has been tested to UL 9540A standards, the highest battery safety standard in the industry. Backed by an industry-leading warranty of 15 years, you can rest assured that your IQ Battery 5P will perform as expected for years to come.

How the IQ Battery 5P can power your home

The Enphase IQ Battery 5P is designed to power your home during the night and in power outages by storing excess solar energy generated during the day. With a peak power output of 7.68 kW and continuous power of 3.84 kW, it can run essential appliances and even energy-intensive systems like HVACs. During outages, the battery seamlessly supplies energy, ensuring that critical loads remain operational. The modular design with multiple microinverters increases reliability, as power continues to flow even if one component fails.

With partial and whole home options, you can choose how your IQ Battery 5P will power your home. A partial home setup will provide essential power to designated loads while a whole home setup will provide seamless energy to your whole home. Energy management is even easier with the Enphase app. From tracking your usage to directing power to where it is needed during an outage – the power is at your fingertips.
