[{"type":"text","content":"FREMONT, Calif., May 12, 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 the launch of the Enphase® IQ® Balcony Solar System in Belgium. Designed for plug-and-play installation, the new system empowers apartment dwellers and homeowners with limited roof space to generate their own clean energy from balconies, patios, and small outdoor areas. It's also a simple and affordable solution for fully off-grid use cases, offering reliable daytime power for cabins, camping sites, mobile home setups, and more. The IQ Balcony Solar System includes Enphase IQ8HC™ Microinverters, IQ® Balcony Gateway, and other components. Enphase also recently launched the product in Germany.

Belgium legalized balcony solar systems for the first time in April 2025, as the country targets a 40% increase in solar capacity by the end of this year. The Enphase IQ Balcony Solar System will help more people participate in the energy transition, supporting greater energy independence across Europe. The IQ Balcony Solar System offers the following key features: Do-it-yourself installation: The system has an easy setup with plug-and-play connectors for self-installation and commissioning through the Enphase® App.Off-grid operation: The system's IQ Microinverters switch seamlessly between grid-tied and off-grid modes, so connected devices can stay powered during daytime grid outages, or function entirely off-grid when the sun is shining in rural or remote areas where grid power isn’t available.Scalable solution: Homeowners can start with a small system and expand over time using an Enphase expansion kit as energy needs grow. Additional energy from the expansion kit can be harvested using the auxiliary socket.Integrated connectivity: The system offers a simplified setup using Wi-Fi or cellular data, supported by a 5-year data plan for seamless monitoring and updates.Highly reliable: The IQ8HC Microinverters come with an IP67 rating, while the IQ Balcony Gateway has an IP65 rating and a 5-year warranty. “We’re seeing a surge in interest from Belgians looking for easy-to-install sy...
