Enphase Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:ENPH) said it has partnered with French solar and storage provider Ensol to roll out a residential battery subscription program in France, with plans starting at €30 per month.
The initiative will allow homeowners to access Enphase’s IQ Battery 5P system through a monthly subscription that includes installation, monitoring, maintenance and a 15-year warranty. After the third year, customers will have the option to continue the subscription, buy the battery at its remaining value, or end the service.
Ensol plans to combine participating batteries into a virtual power plant that will take part in demand response programs operated by Réseau de Transport d’Électricité, France’s electricity transmission system operator. According to the company, this setup helps lower monthly costs for participating households.
The IQ Battery 5P provides 5 kWh of usable storage capacity and can be expanded up to 70 kWh. The system is compatible with both single-phase and three-phase electrical systems commonly used in French homes.
“France has millions of solar homes that are ready for storage, but upfront cost has often been the biggest barrier,” said Sabbas Daniel, senior vice president of sales at Enphase Energy. “Ensol’s subscription model helps remove that barrier.”
Looking ahead, Enphase said it plans to organize homeowner outreach events in 2026 across France and the Netherlands to encourage adoption of battery storage among existing solar system owners. The company expects to host hundreds of in-person sessions aimed at households that currently operate solar installations without energy storage.
