Enphase IQ EV Charger 2

The greenest charger in the driveway

Your car is the biggest battery you own — so why fill it from the grid?

An electric car already beats petrol on emissions. But plug it into an ordinary charger and it draws whatever the grid happens to be serving at that moment — which, after dark, is still largely fossil-fuelled. The cleanest kilometres aren’t just electric; they’re solar. They come straight off your own roof.

The Enphase IQ EV Charger 2 is built to make that the default. In Green Charging mode it watches your solar production and your home’s demand in real time and charges the car on your surplus sunshine — the energy you’d otherwise export for a few cents — adjusting in single-amp steps so almost none of it goes to waste. Tell it how far you’re driving and when you need the car ready, and it fills up on the cleanest, cheapest power available, topping up from off-peak grid only when it has to.

It’s also smart about your house. Dynamic load balancing adjusts the car’s draw on the fly, so you can add fast home charging without an expensive switchboard or supply upgrade — sparing you the cost, and sparing the copper, concrete, and callouts that come with new electrical infrastructure. Paired with an Enphase battery, it can even keep charging through a blackout.

Here’s the part most EV-charger marketing skips. A charger’s real green credential isn’t in the box — it’s in what flows through it across the years you own it. Measured that way, the greenest charger is the one that puts the most solar-powered kilometres on your car and the fewest grid-powered ones. That’s its lifetime value: thousands of clean kilometres driven on energy you made yourself. And because it’s built ISO 15118-ready for two-way charging, it’s prepared for the day your car gives energy back — powering your home or supporting the grid when it matters most. The greenest charge is the one that came off your own roof.

• Green Charging mode — charges the car on surplus solar, adjusting in single-amp steps so almost none of your clean energy is exported or wasted.
• No costly upgrade — dynamic load balancing adds fast charging without a switchboard or supply upgrade, avoiding the cost and materials of new wiring.
• Charges through a blackout — paired with an Enphase battery, your car keeps charging when the grid goes down.
• Storm Guard — tops the car up ahead of severe weather, so you’re never caught flat.
• Ready for two-way power — ISO 15118 hardware prepares for bidirectional (V2H/V2G) charging as it becomes available.
• Yours alone — app or RFID access control stops anyone else drawing on your charger.
• Built for the elements — a weather-sealed enclosure and field-replaceable cable, rated for heat, cold, and everything between.
