Is this system compatible with storage solutions? What kind of storage?
AC solutions are compatible with AC energy storage solutions. When using Enphase Storage, you can see the energy flows on Enlighten, Enphase’s system monitoring application. If you choose a different storage solution provider, you will need to use their monitoring application to see the energy flows of the battery.

Can I run my entire house on solar power?
You can power your entire house using solar energy. By installing solar panels, you can generate electricity from sunlight and run your home's appliances, lighting, and other electrical systems. An inverter converts the solar-generated electricity into a usable form, and batteries can store excess energy for use during cloudy days or at night. Factors like your energy consumption, the size of the solar system, available sunlight, and location are all important. Our professional installers will help you determine the right setup for your needs.
Why should I limit shading from trees?
To maximize system production. Trees, plants, rooftop antennas, satellite dishes, and other obstructions can block the sunlight from reaching the panels. If any portion of the panel is shaded, your system will produce electricity at a reduced level. Should you need to trim vegetation or move objects that might shade the panels, please do so during the daylight hours and use caution.
What solar products do I need for my house?
A solar energy system typically comprises components such as solar panels, an inverter, batteries (if desired), and a grid connection (where relevant). Our installer partners will meet with you to design your system based on your needs and wishes.
