IQ Bidirectional EV Charger

Last verified 2026-10-06.

• Enphase describes this as a bidirectional home EV charger whose power stage is three 3.8 kW gallium nitride (GaN) microinverters, moving 200 to 1,000 V DC between the vehicle and the charger and up to 11.5 kW AC to and from the grid.
• Enphase's product page says it is available in 2026, and its February 2026 release targets volume production from Q4 2026 after limited pilot deployments.
• The model codes appear only on a preliminary North American data sheet dated July 2025 (240 V single phase or split phase, Type 1 CCS or NACS connector), so they should not be read as covering any other market.
• It cannot be scored yet: the only data sheet is marked preliminary with data subject to change, the warranty is stated only as 10 years with no terms document, and the data sheet describes DC power flowing between the charger and the vehicle, with AC between the home and the charger.
• The data sheet's efficiency of above 98% is preliminary, has no test method stated and is not treated as a rated value; this record is not joined to any scored Enphase microinverter.
• Legal manufacturer as printed: Enphase Energy, Inc.
• The download linked from Enphase's US product page was checked on 6 October 2026 and still supplies DSH-00848-1.0-EN-2025-07-23. Page 1 labels it North America preliminary with data subject to change, and page 4 calls July 2025 the preliminary release. A final specification and release status remain unresolved; the 2026 availability banner is not proof of volume production or local stock.
• The preliminary table assigns Type 1 CCS to IQ-EVSE-NA-1060-1102-1300 and NACS to IQ-EVSE-NA-1060-1101-1300. Both list 240 VAC +/-15%, 48 A single-phase/split-phase operation, up to 11.5 kW AC interconnection for charging and discharging, 200 to 1000 VDC at 40 A on the EV side, and 57 to 63 Hz. These are preliminary North American limits, not final rated values, Australian market specifications or rooftop PV input limits. The >98% efficiency has no stated test method or loading basis.
• The preliminary Black Start description expressly requires installation with a grid-islanding device, named as the IQ Meter Collar. V2H requires the EV to be plugged in; backup and grid export depend on the vehicle, site and approvals. Broad interoperability headlines and listed standards do not establish an exact vehicle qualification, utility approval, firmware release or certificate listing. No unconditional backup switching time is assigned.
• Page 2 preliminarily lists Wi-Fi 6, BLE 5.2, Ethernet, CAN, RS485 and 4G LTE, with ISO 15118-2/-20 and DIN 70121 for EV communication, and OCPP 1.6/2.0.1/2.1 and IEEE 2030.5 integration support. These declarations do not establish an available public API, local-only operation, update policy or released firmware. The same sheet lists NEMA 3R and operating temperature -30 to +55 C; its standards and ten-year warranty summaries remain separate from governing certification and warranty documents.
