Enphase Energy, Inc., a global energy technology company and the world’s leading supplier of microinverter-based solar and battery systems, announced a collaboration with Frank Energie, an energy provider in the Netherlands. This strategic relationship will enable Frank Energie customers with Enphase solar and battery systems to participate in the grid imbalance energy marketplace in the Netherlands, which can help maximize their return on investment (ROI) and reduce the system payback period.
Enphase recently launched its IQ® Battery 5P and IQ® Energy Management software in the Netherlands, which enables homeowners to manage dynamic energy tariffs and can help maximize energy savings. The collaboration enables owners of Enphase IQ Batteries to participate in Frank Energie’s dynamic tariff program, as well as its virtual power plants (VPPs) to help manage grid imbalances and unlock further compensation.
“We’re excited to collaborate with Enphase to enhance grid reliability and efficiency,” said Hans van der Woude, CEO of Frank Energie. “Integration with Enphase systems will enable more of our customers to maximize savings through sustainable, efficient energy management.”
Enphase solar and battery systems, in collaboration with Frank Energie’s advanced energy programs, can use AI optimization to automatically direct electricity toward the home or export it to the grid with the goal of helping homeowners maximize financial returns. According to Enphase research, homeowners across the Netherlands with Enphase’s solar plus battery systems that are participating in dynamic energy contracts and the grid imbalance marketplace through VPPs with various utilities could more than triple their lifetime earnings over 25 years compared to solar-only systems.
Frank Energie provides transparent electricity and gas services to customers across the Netherlands. With a focus on customer satisfaction, Frank Energie offers clear pricing structures without hidden fees, positioning itself as a modern, customer-centric alternative in the Dutch energy market.
“Our home energy systems, combined with Frank Energie’s advanced energy services, will dramatically improve the customer experience for homeowners across the Netherlands,” said Sabbas Daniel, senior vice president of sales at Enphase Energy. “By working together, we can help optimize energy usage across Dutch households and speed up the energy transition. We’re excited to deepen our relationship with Frank Energie and help homeowners maximize their home energy investments.”
