Tesla Powerwall 3 integrated inverter.
String inverter · Storage-ready
The Tesla Powerwall 3 comes with a built-in solar inverter that handles up to 20 kW of solar input — eliminating the need for a separate inverter entirely. This simplifies the system, reduces installation cost, and creates one seamlessly integrated solar + storage solution managed from the Tesla app.
- Handles up to 6 strings of panels directly
- No separate inverter purchase required
- Solar and storage in one sleek system
- Tesla app: real-time solar, storage & consumption data
- Storm Watch & Time-Based Control built in
- Best for: new construction, unshaded rooftops
Enphase IQ8HC-DOM microinverters.
Microinverter · Maximum shade tolerance
The Enphase IQ8HC-DOM is a high-powered microinverter mounted beneath each individual panel — converting DC power at the source for maximum efficiency. Unlike string inverters, shading one panel doesn’t drag down your entire system. IQ8 microinverters can even produce limited power during a grid outage without a battery.
- Per-panel optimization — shade doesn’t hurt the system
- Panel-level monitoring via Enphase Enlighten app
- IQ8 operates during grid outages (limited)
- Best for: complex rooflines, partial shade, multiple orientations
- Pairs with Enphase 10C battery storage
- 25-year microinverter warranty
