Side-by-side comparison based on specs, real pricing, and our crew's installation experience. Updated for 2026.
$170-200 per panel (included in system price)
$2,200-2,800 (inverter) + $40-60/optimizer
Each IQ8HC mounts directly under its panel on the racking rail. Our crew clips them in, runs the AC trunk cable, and connects to the Envoy at the main panel. The 384W output handles all panels in our lineup including the 470W REC and 475W Maxeon. Commissioning takes about 20 minutes through the Enphase Installer Toolkit app. The IQ8HC-DOM variant qualifies for domestic content ITC bonus.
The Home Hub mounts on the garage or basement wall near the main panel. Power optimizers mount behind each panel on the roof. The built-in battery management port means adding a SolarEdge battery later requires no inverter swap. We run high-voltage DC home runs from the array to the inverter. Install is typically faster than microinverter systems because there's less wiring on the roof.
