Enphase Energy, Inc.has announced the initial shipments of its IQยฎ Battery 5P from U.S.-based manufacturing facilities, now featuring significantly higher domestic content than previous models.

These new units comply with the updated U.S. federal budget law signed on July 4, 2025, which retroactively mandates that solar and battery products contain at least 45% U.S.-sourced materials starting June 16, 2025. Enphaseโ€™s IQ Battery 5P not only meets the current threshold but is also designed to comply with the increasing requirementsโ€”rising to 50% in 2026 and 55% in 2027, where it will remain fixed.

The IQ Battery 5P offers a modular 5 kWh capacity and can be paired with Enphase IQ8โ„ข Microinverters to provide homeowners with reliable, on-demand power. Through the Enphaseยฎ App, users can monitor system performance and intelligently manage energy usage, including leveraging self-consumption features to reduce grid reliance.

The new batteries, identified by their โ€œDOMโ€ SKU (IQBATTERY-5P-1P-NA-DOM), are built using a substantial share of U.S.-sourced materialsโ€”supporting American manufacturing, domestic job creation, and a more resilient, localized clean energy supply chain.
