Enphase Energy and Sonnenstromfabrik Launch High-Efficiency AC Modules in Europe
August 17 2020 - 8:00AM
Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENPH), a global energy technology
company and the world’s leading supplier of solar microinverters,
today announced a strategic partnership with Sonnenstromfabrik (CS
Wismar GmbH), one of Europe’s most modern, high-quality
manufacturers of solar modules, to develop the first
high-efficiency Enphase Energized™ AC module (ACM) for the European
residential solar market. These ACMs are available in Germany,
Belgium, France, and the Netherlands.
The Excellent Glass/Glass PERC60 Enphase Energized ACM features
Enphase IQ 7+™ microinverters with a 96.5% Euro efficiency and 295
volt-amperes (VA) peak power which optimizes the energy yield from
the PERC60 ACM for all insolation levels. The ACM’s anti-reflective
glass ensures outstanding performance with up to 5% more yield and
optimum light output of the modules, even in low light conditions.
In addition, the Glass/Glass technology offers exceptional
resistance against fire, scratching and other environmental
conditions, while the burst mode technology of Enphase IQ 7+
microinverters enhances the overall performance of the ACM. The
Excellent Glass/Glass PERC60 ACM allows installers to be more
competitive through improved capital management, reduced labor
costs, improved SKU management, simplified design, and faster
installation times.
“We are delighted to be working with Enphase to deliver solar
solutions to homeowners in Europe,” said Dr. Bernhard Weilharter,
CEO of CS Wismar GmbH. “Our partnership enables both companies to
combine products and expertise, and to ensure customers get high
quality, easy-to-use solutions in the high volume European solar
market.”
IQ 7+ microinverters leverage Enphase’s unique software-defined
architecture and semiconductor integration for excellent
reliability and economies of scale. Enphase microinverters are
subjected to a rigorous reliability and quality testing regimen
with more than an aggregated one million hours of cumulative
power-on testing to ensure exceptional performance under heat, high
humidity, salty air, and extreme cold. The Company’s microinverters
are designed to be long-lived energy assets and are backed by a
25-year limited warranty.
"With the Enphase Energized ACM, we offer our installers a
high-performance product that is precisely tailored to meet their
needs for simple planning, cost-effective logistics and faster and
safer installations," said Matthias Meir, head of photovoltaics at
CREATON GmbH. "Homeowners are realizing more and more how important
it is to invest in high-quality photovoltaic systems, and the
innovative AC modules enable us to meet these requirements."
Enphase Energized AC modules from Sonnenstromfabrik work
seamlessly with Enphase IQ™ accessory products: the lighter
two-wire Enphase Q Cable™, Enphase Envoy-S™ gateway and Enphase
Envoy-S metered gateway with split core current transformers (CTs)
for production and consumption monitoring. Solar installers who
select the Excellent Glass/Glass PERC60 ACM can monitor their
solar fleets remotely using the powerful cloud-based Enphase
Enlighten™ monitoring system, provide their customers the
peace-of-mind of a 25-year module warranty, and rely on the Enphase
support team to deliver an outstanding customer experience.
“We see our collaboration with Sonnenstromfabrik as an important
step towards further bringing next-generation, clean energy
solutions to the roof,” said Dave Ranhoff, chief commercial officer
at Enphase Energy. “With these new AC modules, we are expanding our
innovative product range for European solar installers and
homeowners.”
