Enphase

Getting Started

Connect your Enphase system to see real-time solar generation, battery state of charge, and home consumption in Joule Genie. Note that the Enphase public API does not support timed charge scheduling — battery mode switching (Self-Consumption or Savings Mode) is available.

Step 1: Create an Enphase Developer Account

Go to developer.enphaseenergy.com and sign in with your Enlighten account credentials (or create a free developer account). Navigate to Apps & Sandbox and create a new application. Note the API key, client ID, and client secret shown on the application page.

Step 2: Add the Integration in Joule Genie

In Joule Genie, go to Settings > Integrations > Add Integration and select Enphase from the Inverter category. Enter your API key, client ID, client secret, Enlighten username, and password.

Step 3: Select Your System

Click Find my systems. Joule Genie will authenticate and list all Enphase systems registered to your account. Select the site you want to monitor.

Step 4: Verify Connection

Within a few minutes, the dashboard will show real-time solar generation and battery state of charge. The battery mode can be switched between Self-Consumption and Savings Mode from the Settings page.

Limitations

• The Enphase public API v4 does not expose timed charge scheduling — you cannot set charge windows via Joule Genie. This is a vendor API limitation.
• Grid export visibility is derived from solar and consumption readings; direct export metering depends on your system configuration.

Troubleshooting

• "Authentication failed"? Ensure your developer app is approved and the API key, client ID, and client secret match exactly what is shown in the developer portal.
• System not appearing? Make sure the system is visible and reporting in the Enlighten app before connecting.
