Conventional batteries waste energy
During quiet hours—when homes are just running things like Wi-Fi, lights, and TVs—standard hybrid inverter systems waste energy because they’re not designed to operate efficiently at low power. The result: less usable energy and shorter battery life.
IQ Batteries provide more energy
PowerMatch technology monitors how much energy a home needs and activates only the microinverters required. By matching output precisely to demand, IQ Batteries can save you up to 1 kWh¹ of energy every day compared to standard hybrid inverter systems. That's enough saved energy to power a refrigerator for a whole day.
That means more savings over time
When homeowners use more of your own stored energy, you rely less on the grid. Over time, that means real savings—up to an additional $2,000 over the lifetime of the battery².
