VP Solar is official distributor in Italy and Europe for Enphase products, including microinverters and storage systems for photovoltaic solutions.
Let’s explore the development of their products and their entry into the Italian market through VP Solar.
Enphase: growth and product development
Enphase is an American company founded in 2006 that developed microinverter technology for maximizing energy conversion from each photovoltaic module. Their solutions can be applied to both residential, commercial and industrial (C&I) installations.
To this day, Enphase has distributed approximately 70 million microinverters, which have been installed in about 3.5 million systems across 150 countries worldwide.
With the launch of their batteries, Enphase integrated his catalog with energy storage systems for buildings, offering also monitoring through a user-friendly app that allows settings to be adjusted effortlessly.
The Enphase IQ Battery is included in VP Solar’s Storage Map, a technical guide available for installers and PV systems designers for selecting and configuring storage solutions for both residential and C&I applications.
Enphase’s expansion into the italian market
In 2021, Enphase announced its expansion into the Italian market with a press release, selecting three official distributors, including VP Solar.
The reliability of an official distributor in a constantly evolving market is considered a strategic advantage by installers, ensuring access to high-quality products with solid warranties and compliance with Raee contributions.
