The Enphase App allows all Project Solar customers to see how much energy their solar system produces. However, some customers also want to see how much energy their home consumes (and how much is exported to the grid).
With an extra piece of equipment that's fairly simple to install, you can start monitoring your home's energy use alongside your solar production.
What Equipment Do I Need?
To monitor consumption, you'll need a pair of Enphase Consumption Current Transformers (also called a CT consumption meter), which you can purchase at this link: https://enphase.com/store/communication/consumption-ct

This equipment does not come standard with Project Solar installs, so you will need to buy it separately.
Where Can I See Consumption in the Enphase App?
Once you've installed the CT consumption meter, you can view your home's energy consumption on the Status or Usage screens of the Enphase app. You can also see consumption in the Overview screen, the Consumption screen, and in Reports when using MyEnphase for your web browser.
