[{"type":"text","content":"FREMONT, Calif., Dec. 16, 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 newly expanded safe harbor agreement with a leading solar financing company that offers third-party ownership (TPO) agreements to homeowners, including leases and power purchase agreements (PPAs). The newly expanded safe harbor agreement builds on a prior transaction with this leading TPO provider that was announced after the One Big Beautiful Bill Act passed in July 2025, underscoring Enphase’s strong, continued engagement with established TPO partners.

Enphase IQ8HC™ Microinverters that have SKUs with a “DOM” suffix, when paired with other U.S.-made solar equipment, can help enable TPO providers to also qualify for the domestic content bonus tax credit and align with evolving U.S. sourcing requirements. “Safe harbor agreements give our partners the confidence to move faster in a complex policy environment,” said Ken Fong, senior vice president of sales at Enphase Energy. “Securing tax credit eligibility by leveraging Enphase microinverters can enable TPO providers and developers to scale high-quality residential solar and commercial projects with less risk. We’re excited to support this growing pipeline as we continue ramping domestic production of Enphase products.” Enphase expects to enter into similar agreements in the coming months.
