AC-coupled, with microinverters built in, so it retrofits beside almost any existing system. Has the longest warranty term here. *70% at 10 years and 60% at 15 years.
Enphase IQ Battery 5P supplied and installed by our SAA accredited installers across Queensland.
IQ Battery 5P is AC-coupled. Each 5.0 kWh LFP unit has its own embedded microinverters, so it connects on the AC side and can retrofit beside almost any existing solar system. Units can be combined for more capacity.
How it works, simply: during the day, surplus solar charges the battery instead of being exported for a few cents. In the evening the battery powers your home before you draw from the grid. LFP (lithium iron phosphate) chemistry is known for thermal stability and long cycle life.
It suits existing solar homes that want to add storage without replacing their inverter, and Enphase microinverter owners who want one app. It carries a 15-year warranty, the longest term in our comparison.
For Queensland conditions: the manufacturer specifies an operating range of -20º C to 50º C, and its enclosure rating is Indoor/Outdoor (IP55). In hot climates many systems reduce output at the top of their range, so we install out of direct afternoon sun with clearance for airflow wherever possible. With storm season bringing outages, the backup set-up (which circuits stay on) is something we'll design with you.
Countryside Solar supplies and installs the Enphase IQ Battery 5P across Toowoomba, Dalby and our 13 service areas in Queensland. Our SAA-accredited installers handle system design, installation, commissioning and warranty registration, and the work is backed by our 25-year workmanship warranty.

Products from other categories that work well alongside the IQ Battery 5P.
In most cases, yes. It's AC-coupled, so it connects on the AC side independently of your solar inverter.
The manufacturer warranty is 15 years, with battery capacity remaining at end of warranty: 70% after 10 years and 60% from 10-15 years; warranted throughput: 27,375. Terms may require product registration. We register it for you.
The manufacturer lists Indoor/Outdoor (IP55). In Queensland we still avoid direct afternoon sun where possible, because heat can reduce performance, and we'll recommend the best spot during the site visit.
Eligible installations may qualify for the Cheaper Home Batteries Program discount. We'll confirm eligibility and the current amount in your quote.
Most Queensland homes suit 10–16 kWh of usable storage. We size the IQ Battery 5P from your evening usage, backup goals and solar array.
Backup capability varies by model and switchboard design. We'll explain whether the IQ Battery 5P covers whole-home or essential circuits for your property.
Often yes via AC coupling or a hybrid inverter upgrade. We assess your current inverter before quoting the IQ Battery 5P.
