[{"type":"text","content":"FREMONT, Calif., Nov. 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENPH), a global energy technology company and the world's leading supplier of microinverter-based solar and battery systems, today announced a new safe harbor agreement with a leading solar and battery financing company that offers third-party ownership (TPO) agreements to homeowners, including leases and power purchase agreements (PPAs). This is the third safe harbor agreement for Enphase since the new U.S. federal budget bill was signed into law in July 2025.

We are committed to helping partners scale high-quality, reliable systems that expand access to clean energy.” Enphase expects additional financing providers to follow suit in the coming months, potentially expanding ...
