The IQ Energy Router+ integrates Enphase solar and storage battery systems with heat pumps and/or up to 2 EV chargers to maximize self-consumption and minimize utility costs. The IQ Energy Router+ is installed by using the Enphase Installer App. Homeowners can use the Enphase App to monitor energy flows and control the system.
The IQ Energy Router, in combination with IQ Microinverters and optionally IQ Battery, supports the following use cases with 1 or 2 connected EV chargers. The IQ Energy Router+ supports up to two EV chargers and connects one heat pump using the SG Ready interface. It also supports the following use cases.
For homeowners who are on a dynamic tariff energy contract where the electricity rates vary hourly, the IQ Energy Router can optimize the connected devices in such a way that high-cost periods are avoided as much as possible, and the devices are instead run when energy rates are low. This can lead to significant cost savings.
3.1.1 Enphase Installer App The Enphase Installer App is required to commission the IQ Energy Router. This app is used to commission all Enphase devices and offers a fully guided experience.
