“The all-inclusive third generation microinverter system delivers a set of innovations that – coupled with now over 750,000 units shipped – clearly establishes Enphase as a trusted brand in solar,” said Enphase CEO Paul Nahi.
“Our new offering delivers exactly what installers have been asking for – a proven, no-compromise microinverter system that sets the bar for efficiency, is simple to install and is guaranteed for the 20 to 25 year expected lifetime of the solar system.”
M215 compatible with 60-cell modules
Enphase states that the M215 is the only microinverter to achieve a weighted power efficiency of 96%.
The microinverter is rated to 215 watts-AC, 13% higher than previous generations, which Enphase says makes it compatible with higher-power 60-cell modules.
The M215 comes with a 25-year limited warranty, as well as Enphase's Enlighten monitoring and analysis service and the Envoy communications gateway.
Enphase says the M215 is currently available in the United States with CSA certification and will be available in Europe with VDE certification in the second half of 2011.
Enphase-enabled AC modules to ship in 2H 2012
The Engage system is comprised of the size-to-fit Engage cable and the Engage Port, an ACM microinverter port which replaces the standard DC junction box on a PV module.
Enphase states that built-in connectors on the Engage cable can support a 4kW system on a single branch.
Enphase further states that its module manufacturing partners will begin shipping AC modules which incorporate Enphase microinverters in the second half of 2012.
