Enphase announced the first shipments of IQ8X microinverters and IQ8P-3P commercial microinverters, delivered from manufacturing facilities in the United States with higher domestic content than previous models. The microinverters have SKUs with the suffix ‘DOM’, which indicates a larger amount of domestic content.
Enphase announced in July 2024 that certain IQ8 microinverters, when combined with other U.S.-made solar equipment, could qualify for the domestic content tax credit under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). With the new IQ8 microinverters having more components manufactured in the United States, less additional U.S. solar equipment is required to meet current domestic content bonus requirements.
“The production of IQ8 microinverters in the United States marks an important milestone for Enphase,” said Oren Tamir, founder and CEO of NRG Clean Power. “This move underscores our commitment to quality and innovation, and we are confident it will strengthen the trust our customers place in our products knowing they are made right here in America.”
In addition, Enphase IQ8 microinverters, supplied by manufacturing facilities in the United States, have been added to the California Energy Commission (CEC) Solar Equipment Lists, which includes equipment that meets established national safety and performance standards.
