Every component in an Enphase Energy System is purpose-built to make and use energy as efficiently as possible. Now, IQ Energy Management takes it even further.
IQ Energy Management is an AI software platform embedded in Enphase Energy Systems that forecasts energy production and consumption while monitoring energy rates. Using this information, every aspect of an Enphase Energy System, can be precisely controlled to help homeowners maximize financial savings or independence from the grid.
Simply put, IQ Energy Management makes smart energy.
How it works
Energy management is complex, but IQ Energy Management makes it beautifully simple.
Forecast
IQ Energy Management learns the home’s consumption patterns and upcoming weather, and begins forecasting solar production, electricity prices, and daily energy needs.
Calculate
Using intelligent forecasts and cloud-based AI technology, IQ Energy Management calculates the optimal use of power based on the homeowner’s energy goals.
Control
IQ Energy Management manages the Enphase Energy System by controlling when to use grid, solar, and battery energy, and when to schedule energy-intensive appliances.
Two powerful modes
IQ Energy Management is as responsive as it is intelligent. It can increase savings by importing and exporting energy at optimal times, or reduce CO2 footprint by prioritizing the use of solar energy.
One app to control it all
Everything is easily controlled through the Enphase App. At home or on the road, homeowners can view consumption, check battery charge, and more. Soon, they can even start and stop their EV charger. The homeowner has personalized control, but IQ Energy Management does all the work.
