The Future of Energy Independence:
EV to Home Backup
At ECG Solar™, we don’t just install solar; we engineer energy freedom. As Iowa’s Premier Solar Provider™, we are proud to introduce the next evolution in home energy management: the Enphase IQ Bidirectional EV Charger.
Your electric vehicle is no longer just a mode of transport—it is a powerful, mobile energy reservoir ready to support your home and the Iowa grid.
In Iowa, we face everything from summer derecho winds to winter blizzards. The Enphase IQ Bidirectional Charger ensures that when the grid fails, your life doesn’t skip a beat.
Forget traditional noisy gas generators. Your EV carries enough energy to power your entire home for days. When the grid goes down, the IQ Bidirectional Charger automatically switches to draw power from your car, keeping your lights on and your family safe.
Through the Enphase App, you can participate in "Grid Services." During peak demand, you can sell excess power from your EV back to the utility at premium rates. It’s the ultimate way to maximize your return on investment (ROI).
Paired with an ECG Solar™ custom-designed array, you can charge your vehicle using nothing but the sun. Our systems prioritize excess solar production for your car, ensuring you truly drive on 100% clean, free energy.
The ECG Solar™ Difference:
Why Experience Matters
Installing bidirectional technology requires a level of electrical expertise that “budget” installers simply don’t possess. As an engineering-focused firm, ECG Solar™ provides:
- NABCEP Certified Expertise: Our team holds the highest certifications in the industry, ensuring your high-voltage EV system is safe and optimized.
- Seamless Enphase Integration: We specialize in the entire Enphase ecosystem (IQ8 Microinverters, IQ Batteries, and the IQ Gateway), allowing for a single-app experience.
- 30-Year Warranty Support: We stand by our work. Our industry-leading warranties ensure your investment is protected for decades, not just years.
- GaN-Powered Efficiency: We utilize Enphase’s Gallium Nitried (GaN) technology, delivering over 98% efficiency with a footprint smaller than any traditional charger on the market.
