Enphase has launched a new microinverter: the IQ8. It is a thousand times more powerful than the IQ7 and ready for what comes next. We want the best quality for our customers, so in this blog we tell you about the new technology and what the Enphase IQ8 microinverter brings.

The Enphase IQ8 microinverter

If you are thinking about a solar panel system, you will soon discover there are different types of inverter. In the Enphase system each panel has a microinverter behind it: a smart chip that turns the energy generated straight into alternating current. The microinverters are connected to the earth leakage breaker in the meter cupboard, so you can use the power in your house.

Powerful and intelligent

The greatest advantage of the Enphase IQ8 is that it is a thousand times more powerful than the IQ7 and supports the latest panel modules. Its new intelligent chip (ASIC) delivers more power per square metre, and a failure rate of 0.05% is very good indeed.

An investment that lasts


With its intelligent chip (ASIC) and a new platform, this microinverter is ready for the future. It is the first in the business that can form a microgrid of its own. That is unfortunately not yet possible in Europe, but it opens possibilities for later.

In practice

What does that make possible? With Enphase IQ8 microinverters your panels keep generating power, even during a power cut, although they supply only what is needed at that moment. Household appliances simply keep working. If you use something that draws more power than is being generated, it runs at lower speed: a vacuum cleaner or a lawnmower, for instance. The microinverters also make sure no appliance receives too much power, which is safer.
