Enphase has confirmed that its AC battery, now available for installers to order in Australia and New Zealand, is priced in the region of AU$1,150/kWh (US$838/kWh), as originally announced last October.

The company finally put the long-awaited device onto the market at the beginning of last week, with orders expected to be fulfilled from August.
