More than a decade before Enphase launched its GaN-based IQ9 Microinverters, Martin Fornage was experimenting with it in the lab. Some of those early experiments went up in smoke. 💨
In this clip, he and co-founder Raghu Belur look back on the early days of wide-bandgap semiconductors at Enphase, from the use of silicon carbide in its first-generation microinverters to Martin’s early GaN experiments and the lessons learned along the way.

Built to last. Powered by GaN.
Gallium nitride (GaN) enables more efficient power conversion, higher performance, and less heat than traditional silicon, making it one of the most important advances in modern power electronics.
That's why it's becoming a foundational technology across the Enphase platform, from next-generation microinverters to future storage, EV charging, and intelligent power infrastructure.
See how GaN is helping shape what's next:
When comparing solar and battery systems, it's worth asking who will stand behind your equipment years after installation.
Long-term support matters, from warranty coverage and replacement parts to software updates and system monitoring. Foreign Entity of Concern (FEOC) requirements add another consideration, with rules around manufacturer ownership and supply chain sourcing that can influence equipment choices in the U.S.
Understanding FEOC can help homeowners ask more informed questions when reviewing solar quotes and choosing a manufacturer they can count on.

Three generations. 90 years in business. A commitment to quality that continues to shape every installation.
For decades, K.L. Green Energy has built its reputation in Belgium on technical expertise, personal service, and lasting relationships with its customers. Today, the family-run business is the country’s longest-standing Enphase partner, with more than a decade of experience designing and installing Enphase systems.
In a recent residential project in Lommel, the team designed an Enphase Energy System to help the homeowner achieve greater energy independence. The system combines solar with IQ8 Series Microinverters, three IQ Battery 5Ps with FlexPhase, an IQ System Controller, and an IQ EV Charger 2.
“We don’t sell a price,” said owner Kristof Lassaut. “We sell quality. And that means Enphase.”

Where cutting-edge meets clean energy.
At its Canonsburg, Pennsylvania campus, @Ansys/Synopsys invested in a 333 kW rooftop system designed to reduce long-term operating costs while advancing ESG and carbon reduction goals.
Installed by Pennsylvania Solar Energy Co Inc and powered by Enphase IQ8P-3P Microinverter technology, the system is expected to generate 425,867 kWh annually and deliver more than $3 million in estimated lifetime savings.
For installer Blake Reedy, the decision came down to long-term value:
💬 “For this commercial project, Enphase products provide the greatest long-term investment opportunity.”

Enphase has begun shipments of IQ Gateway Fusion in India, bringing solar backup to homes during daytime power cuts, even without a home battery.
Designed to work with IQ8 Microinverters, IQ Gateway Fusion keeps essential loads running on solar when the grid goes down. It can also be paired with a home UPS to use solar for charging during the day, helping extend backup runtime and recharge the UPS the next morning if an outage continues overnight.
IQ Gateway Fusion combines the IQ Gateway, IQ Relay, and a built-in power socket in a single compact unit. Homeowners can use it to power home UPS systems, refrigerators, electric scooters, and other essential loads, while installers can commission the system in minutes through the Enphase Installer App.

In 2007, top inverter brands declared that 10-year reliability was impossible.
Enphase set out to prove them wrong.
In this clip, Raghu Belur and Martin Fornage look back on the early skepticism surrounding reliability — and the mindset that pushed Enphase to keep solving hard engineering problems anyway.
Twenty years later, long-term performance still defines the company.

At AI Infra Summit, Enphase Co-founder and CPO Raghu Belur took the stage to explore what it will take to deliver power to AI infrastructure at unprecedented speed and scale.
In “Solid-State Transformers: Speed to Power,” Raghu outlined how SSTs can convert medium voltage directly to 800 VDC, simplifying the power chain for AI data centers operating at unprecedented power densities.
He also examined three factors that will determine the ability to scale SST technology into critical infrastructure: technology, supply chain, and manufacturing scale.
Raghu draws on Enphase's 20 years of distributed power electronics experience to examine what it will take to move SSTs from promising technology to critical infrastructure.

The Enphase IQ Meter Collar is now approved by 80 utilities that collectively serve more than 38 million customers across the U.S. and Canada.
These approvals expand access to whole-home backup while simplifying deployment of the 4th-generation Enphase Energy System. The Enphase IQ Meter Collar enables less equipment on the wall, streamlined commissioning, and fewer installation steps.
Now approved by all three major investor-owned electric utilities in California and the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (@SMUDUpdates), this expands access to whole-home backup across the state. Hawaiian Electric (@HwnElectric) has also approved initial pilot installations, with full approval expected in the coming months.

A look at Enphase's week so far at the AI Infra Summit in Santa Clara. ⚡
Co-founder and CPO Raghu Belur presented "Solid-State Transformers: Speed to Power," breaking down how technology, supply chain, and manufacturing scale determine how fast solid-state transformers can get power to AI data centers.
If you're at the show, come meet our team and learn more about our IQ Solid-State Transformer solution at Booth 1454.

"The manufacturing foundation is here. In Texas. It's ready. And now, we scale it for AI."
That's @KrapelsMarco in Arlington, Texas, standing in front of the manufacturing lines building our first power modules at the heart of the Enphase IQ Solid-State Transformer.
We didn't build a new line for this. We didn't have to. IQ SST power modules run on the same highly automated equipment that has shipped approximately 89 million Enphase Microinverters.
Same footprint. Same automation. Same people. That matters, because AI infrastructure has to scale fast.
Next up: complete rack assembly and megawatt-scale validation, right here in Texas.
We're at AI Infra Summit in Santa Clara this week, Sept 15-17. Come by the booth 1454 and talk to the team about IQ SST.
What does it take to bring power to the next generation of AI data centers?
Meet the Enphase team at Booth 1454 during the AI Infra Summit, September 15–17 in Santa Clara, to learn more about the IQ Solid-State Transformer (IQ SST) and Enphase’s approach to power conversion for AI infrastructure.
