The Enphase production line will have a capacity of 100MW (500,000 microinverters) in the first year of operation. The company plans to double this capacity to one million microinverters to support expected demand in 2011.
Enphase microinverters convert the energy output of each individual solar PV module into grid-compliant AC power. The Enphase Microinverter System streamlines solar installations by integrating these microinverters with power-line communications and a web-based monitoring service.
The Enphase M190 and D380 microinverters for the Ontario market will be generally available beginning in May 2010.
Adam Webb, president of Sentinel Solar, said: “We are pleased that Enphase is expanding its presence in Ontario with a FiT-qualifying product.
“Sentinel was the first company to offer Enphase technology in Canada, and the first to offer it exclusively to our customers. Our mission is to make renewable energy easy to understand, install and use, and we truly believe Enphase is the absolute best solution for our installer and end-user customers.”
