Enphase Energy and Cutler Bay Solar Solutions Partner to Deliver 1.5 MWh of Battery Storage Systems to Florida Homes
November 09 2020 - 8:00AM
Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENPH), a global energy management
technology company and the world’s leading supplier of
microinverter-based solar-plus-storage systems, today announced
that Cutler Bay Solar Solutions, Florida’s largest family-owned
solar-plus-storage installation company and a Platinum tier member
of the Enphase Installer Network, has deployed more than 1.5 MWh of
Enphase Encharge™ storage systems.
Cutler Bay Solar Solutions was a lead installer in the Enphase
Encharge storage system field testing program, providing technical
and useability feedback directly to Enphase. Since its public
release in late July 2020, Cutler Bay Solar Solutions has deployed
more than 1.5 MWh of Encharge storage systems across 80 homes in
the South Florida market. The installations include a combination
of Enphase Encharge 10™ and Encharge 3™ storage systems, which
offer usable and scalable battery storage capacities of
approximately 10.1 kWh and 3.4 kWh, respectively. The Encharge
storage system is modular, allowing installers the flexibility for
either backing up the whole home or starting small and growing over
time, depending on homeowner needs.
“Our customers want the peace of mind of knowing that they can
produce and use solar energy during the day, and use stored energy
at night even when a storm causes a power outage,” said Raul
Vergara, owner at Cutler Bay Solar Solutions. “The Encharge storage
system lets us deliver an all-in-one, reliable home energy system
without a lot of custom design, a kludge of devices, or the
difficulty of installing and supporting those types of system. For
our customers, the Enphase system means more choices around things
like protecting refrigerated food during a power outage, without
worrying about fuel and maintenance or the constant noise of gas
generators.”
“The installers at Cutler Bay Solar Solutions did great work
designing and installing an Encharge storage system that was just
right for us, and everything linked up easily with our existing
Enphase solar system,” said Vice Lago, Enphase homeowner in Coral
Gables, Florida. “I am not excited about the chaos of the next
hurricane here, but I am looking forward to not having to deal with
the disruption of the associated power outages at home. When
technicians demonstrated how the Encharge storage system works, it
was not dramatic. When we cut the grid power from the house, you
can hardly notice that anything happened at all.”
“Our success at Enphase is tied directly to installers like
Cutler Bay Solar Solutions because they are our direct line to the
end-customers,” said Dave Ranhoff, chief commercial officer at
Enphase Energy. “For the Encharge storage system launch, Raul and
the team at Cutler Bay Solar Solutions supported our real-world
testing program, and their feedback made the product better. At
Enphase, our focus remains on delivering the highest quality
products and the best possible customer experience, and Cutler Bay
helped us achieve that objective”.
Enphase delivers a safe solar-plus-storage option that provides
a complete AC solution that does not expose installers or
homeowners to high-voltage DC electricity. Encharge storage systems
feature Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery chemistry, which
provides a long cycle life, safe operation through excellent
thermal stability, and a UL9540A fire safety certification. The
storage systems are equipped with Enphase Power Start™ technology,
which helps seamlessly power up high peak current loads such as
motor-driven appliances, air conditioners, well-pumps, thereby
delivering an exceptional customer experience. Through the Enphase
Enlighten™ mobile app, system owners have the power of insight and
control of their solar and storage systems, including the ability
to take their systems into off-grid mode quickly. Encharge storage
systems offer the confidence and convenience of a maintenance-free
battery system, over-the-air software upgrades, and a limited
10-year warranty.
Encharge storage systems are plug-and-play compatible with new
and existing solar systems with Enphase IQ 6™ and IQ 7™, as well as
M-series microinverters, providing a simple upgrade path for
existing Enphase solar customers. For more information about

storage system, please visit the Enphase website.
