Enphase Energy, Inc.’s shares trade on the Nasdaq under the ticker ENPH.
History and when Enphase Energy, Inc. was founded
Enphase Energy was founded in 2006 by Raghu Belur and Martin Fornage after identifying technical limitations in centralized inverter systems. The company’s core innovation—a microinverter installed on each individual solar module—offered improved reliability, higher energy yield and enhanced electrical safety.
In 2008, Enphase launched its first commercial product, the M175, which opened the path for widespread adoption of module-level power electronics.
During the 2010s, the company rapidly expanded in the United States as residential solar installations accelerated. In 2012, Enphase completed its initial public offering (IPO) on the Nasdaq, using the proceeds to strengthen manufacturing capacity, invest in engineering and expand internationally.
Subsequent microinverter generations, including the M-Series and IQ-Series, became industry benchmarks for efficiency and compatibility.
Beginning in 2017, Enphase undertook strategic restructuring to improve financial stability and concentrate on integrated energy ecosystems. In 2019, it entered the residential-storage market with the launch of its first battery systems, marking an important shift toward unified solar-plus-storage offerings.
Acquisitions in software and digital-energy tools further enhanced the company’s technological platform. Between 2020 and 2024, Enphase experienced strong growth driven by rising demand for backup energy systems, increased solar adoption and expansion into Europe and Australia.
The company released successive microinverter generations, expanded its battery portfolio, introduced integrated EV-charging capabilities and strengthened its global supply chain.
Despite fluctuations in component costs and market demand, Enphase solidified its position as one of the leading global providers of distributed solar and smart-home energy solutions.
