Dear Flemming,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re truly sorry to hear about your frustration, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify a few important points.
🔹 Backup Functionality
Enphase systems do support backup functionality when installed with the IQ System Controller 3 (or earlier compatible models). This controller is essential for enabling backup, as it automatically detects grid outages and transitions the system to off-grid operation.
Please note that backup systems are not currently available in Denmark, which is why this feature is not reflected on our Danish website. For reference, you can explore our product information here.
🔹 System Configuration
If your system includes only IQ Battery R2 units, the system does not support backup functionality, and this limitation is in line with the product descriptions currently available for Denmark. The newer IQ Battery 5P (R3), combined with the IQ System Controller, can enable backup in supported markets.
🔹 Battery Management & App Features
While we currently do not offer official integration with third-party platforms like Home Assistant (due to regulatory limitations in Europe), the Enphase App provides full management of your battery system, including self-consumption settings, export control, and performance optimization. This is also applicable to the IQ Battery R2.
We understand this may not have been clear during your purchase, and we sincerely apologize for any miscommunication. If you’d like, we are happy to review your system configuration with you and explore any potential improvements.

Thank you again for your feedback — we remain committed to improving our communication and supporting our customers in Denmark.
