Raghu co-founded Enphase Energy with Martin Fornage in 2006.
He has more than 25 years of experience in the clean energy and high‑technology industries, and has been at the forefront of developing Enphase’s leading integrated energy system—with solar generation, storage, monitoring, and control. Prior to Enphase, Raghu developed high‑speed optical communication technology for Cerent, which was later acquired by Cisco Systems. Before Cerent, Raghu was an engineer at the Indian Institute of Science, where he played a key role in the development of an alternative energy gasification system.
Raghu received an M.S. degree in electrical engineering from Texas A&M University and an M.B.A. degree from the Haas School of Business at U.C. Berkeley.
Sorting out the different types of inverters involved in residential solar + storage systems and the unique roles they have.
The Enphase IQ8 Microinverter system has been certified to the new North American safety and grid interconnection standards for connecting solar inverters, energy storage systems, and distributed energy resources to the grid.
Enphase says it has successfully demonstrated its bidirectional EV charger to enable vehicle-to-home (V2H) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) functionality.
