Enphase Energy announced the signing of a new safe harbor agreement with a major solar and battery financing company offering third-party ownership (TPO) solutions, including leases and power purchase agreements (PPAs). This marks Enphaseโ€™s second safe harbor agreement since the passage of the U.S. federal budget bill in July 2025.

Signed earlier this month, the agreement is expected to generate approximately $50 million in revenue for Enphase. It highlights the companyโ€™s growing role in the TPO segment, one of the most important growth channels for U.S. residential solar and energy storage. โ€œSafe harbor agreements are a critical tool for keeping solar projects on track despite changing policy landscapes,โ€ said Ken Fong, senior vice president and general manager of the Americas and APAC at Enphase Energy. โ€œThese agreements allow developers and financiers to move forward with confidence, safeguard project economics, and accelerate clean energy deployment. Enphase is committed to supporting every segment of the market, including TPO, as it expands access to affordable, reliable home energy systems.โ€

The agreement covers Enphaseโ€™s U.S.-manufactured IQ8HCโ„ข Microinverters (with โ€œDOMโ€ SKUs), allowing projects to preserve eligibility for both the base Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and the domestic content bonus credit. By safe harboring equipment in advance, solar companies can lock in current tax credit benefits while mitigating risks from potential future policy changes.
