Enphase is a US maker of solar microinverters, IQ Batteries, EV chargers and the IQ Gateway that ties them together. Homeowners monitor and control the system through the Enphase App, installers use separate tools, and developers can reach data through a cloud API or the gateway's local interface.
An Enphase system reports through the IQ Gateway to Enphase's cloud, over Wi-Fi, Ethernet or an optional cellular modem. The Enphase App shows production, consumption, grid and battery data and sets battery profiles. Home Assistant also reads the gateway directly on the local network, and the Enphase cloud API is available to homeowners on a free plan with tight limits.
That suits people who want solar and battery data inside a home automation system, especially Home Assistant users. It is weaker for voice control and Matter, where we found no official support, and for battery control from outside the Enphase App: Home Assistant's page says local battery mode changes stopped working on firmware 8.2.4225.

The homeowner app, described in Enphase's November 2025 blog post as available on the App Store and Google Play. It shows production, consumption, grid and battery status, with second-by-second Live Status, history and panel-level performance. It sets battery profiles (Self-Consumption, Savings, Full Backup), reserve level and Storm Guard, and schedules EV charging. Installers link systems to an account, and owners cannot add one manually. We could not find the store listings, so no store link is given, and we could not confirm how it relates to the older Enlighten and MyEnlighten apps.
Enphase's login pages still point homeowners and installers to enlighten.enphaseenergy.com. Home Assistant's documentation also uses Enlighten account credentials to fetch the gateway token. We did not read a page that describes Enlighten as a current product, so its exact role next to the Enphase App is unconfirmed.
An app for installers and service providers, published by Enphase Energy, Inc. It configures and commissions Enphase systems from an iPhone or iPad, with the listing citing visual guides and real-time updates. iOS 16 or later is required. This is not a homeowner app. The Android link uses a package name found through an app tracker, and we could not load the Google Play page to confirm it.

The Enphase App page says systems report to the app over Wi-Fi or Ethernet, with data refreshing every 5 to 15 minutes, apart from Live Status. A third-party installer guide lists Wi-Fi and Ethernet on the IQ Gateway. Home Assistant warns that using both at once can cause periodic dropouts.
A third-party guide says the gateway talks to the microinverters over the home's electrical wiring. We did not find this stated on an Enphase page we read.
Enphase does not mention Apple Home on the pages we read. A Homebridge plugin, homebridge-enphase-envoy, exposes production, consumption, relay, grid and battery data to Apple Home. It lists IQ Gateway firmware v5 to v8, IQ6 to IQ8 microinverters and IQ Battery models, and can also publish over MQTT. Homebridge marks it verified.
Home Assistant has a built-in Enphase Envoy integration, classed Local Polling and rated Platinum on its quality scale. It is maintained by the Home Assistant project, not by Enphase. It polls the gateway about every 60 seconds and needs firmware 3.9 or newer. The Enphase cloud is used only for setup and token renewal. Firmware 7 and later use a one-year token fetched with Enphase credentials, and accounts with multi-factor authentication must enter a token by hand. It covers microinverters, batteries, the Enpower switch, load-shedding relays and the IQ Meter Collar. As of firmware 8.2.4225 the local API no longer supports battery mode changes, grid charging or reserve level changes, so the Enphase App is needed for those.
A community app, Enphase Controller by Bram Tops, is listed for Homey Cloud, Homey Pro, Homey Pro mini and Self-Hosted Server and covers battery, grid, solar and inverters. Every device type is marked Homey Bridge required, and the listing shows a compatibility warning for some setups. A Homey forum thread also mentions a separate Solar Panels app that reads production but not grid power. We found no official Enphase or Athom app.
Our combined search for Enphase and openHAB returned nothing relevant, and we did not open openHAB's add-on list for Enphase. We could not confirm a binding exists.

Enphase cloud API
Official
Enphase runs a developer portal with an OAuth 2.0 API. Homeowners can sign up for the free Watt plan, which allows 10 calls a minute and 1,000 a month and covers system details, site-level production and consumption, and EV charger monitoring. Kilowatt (USD 249 a month) adds device-level data and streaming, and Megawatt (USD 999 a month) adds system configuration. Access to a system needs the owner's approval. The Partner plan is limited to installers with at least 10 installations.
Home Assistant and Homebridge read a local REST interface on the gateway, and the Homebridge page lists its data and control endpoints. We did not open an Enphase page documenting it, so its official status and any guarantee of stability are unconfirmed, as the firmware 8.2.4225 change shows.
Checked 11 November 2026 against the brand's own pages, app store listings and each project's own page. “Not found” means we searched and found nothing, not that it is impossible. Compatibility changes often. Spot an error? Tell us and we will fix it.
