Enphase Energy today announced the first shipments of the IQ battery 5P from production facilities in the United States with higher domestic content than previous models. The higher batteries for domestic content comply with the new requirement in the American federal budget legislation, signed on 4 July 2025, which from June 16, 2025 with retroactive effect forces a 45% US-Sourced material threshold for solar and battery products.
In order to remain eligible for important federal tax stimuli, products must meet this threshold, which will increase to 50% in 2026 and 55% in 2027, where it will remain in force at that level. The new IQ battery 5P units with “Dom” SKUs (IQBATTERY-5P-NA-DOM) are now being built to meet these higher standards only for the requirement of 45% of today, but also for all expected future thresholds-dankzij the substantial use of materials in the US. These batteries help support American jobs and production and a more resilient domestic supply chain.
The IQ battery 5P is a modular design with a capacity of 5 kWh and can be linked to ENPASE IQ8 -Micro -Omwers to offer homeowners reliable electricity to use when they need it. Homeowners can also use the Enphase app to check the performance and to manage their battery systems in an intelligent way, including the self-consumption function to reduce the use of electricity from the grid.
“We are delighted to start American shipments from the IQ battery 5p with increased domestic content,” said Ken Fong, Senior VP and general manager of America and APAC at Enphase Energy. “The IQ Battery 5P delivers top performance, and now, with domestic content that meets the newest federal requirements, our installers are better positioned to enjoy the value of federal tax stimuli, grow their businesses and bring energy storage to more houses in the entire country.”
