Enphase Energy, Inc., and REPOWER by Solar Universe have signed an agreement that establishes Enphase as the primary solar energy system supplier for REPOWER’s unique integrated solar power and smart home technology bundle.
Enphase and REPOWER are in the vanguard of a new generation of solar solutions categorized as “Solar-Plus” by GTM Research. The Solar-Plus ecosystem includes solar packaged together with building automation, energy management and load control, energy storage and electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. These integrated offerings will reshape the U.S. solar market, according to the research firm.
“Savvy, cost-conscious homeowners are looking beyond the benefits of a stand-alone solar installation—they want to generate their own power and manage their living environment in a smart, connected way,” said Joe Miller, executive vice president of marketing and strategy at REPOWER by Solar Universe. “Bundling solar and home automation is just the start, as we plan to eventually incorporate home batteries, EV chargers and other smart appliances. With its industry-leading technology and service capabilities, Enphase will help REPOWER enhance our customers’ quality of life for years to come.”
As part of every rooftop solar installation, each new REPOWER customer now receives the following:
- Enphase microinverter-based solar energy system.
- Solar system-compatible smartphone app.
- Automated temperature monitoring.
- LED lighting controls.
- Door and window sensors.
- Wall-mounted control center.
“REPOWER by Solar Universe has a forward-looking combination of solar and smart home technology that dovetails with Enphase’s own vision of intelligent home energy management,” said Jeff Loebbaka, senior vice president of global sales, marketing and support at Enphase Energy. “Solar Universe and its franchisees have been major Enphase customers for years, so we are excited to play a strategic role in the newly rebranded company’s innovative consumer-empowering market approach.”
