FREMONT, Calif., June 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:ENPH), a global energy technology company, today announced that it has joined the Open Compute Project (OCP) Foundation as a Platinum member. Through its membership, Enphase expects to participate in OCP's Community efforts to develop open standards for next-generation data center power infrastructure, including emerging higher-voltage direct current (DC) rack power architectures for AI workloads.

The OCP Foundation is a leading open-source community advancing data center technology, bringing together hyperscalers, suppliers, and innovators to share designs and best practices across power, cooling, networking, and other strategic areas. As AI compute drives rapidly rising rack power requirements, the industry is moving toward higher-voltage DC architectures, including ±400 VDC and 800 VDC, which may require new approaches to AC-to-DC power conversion and distribution.

As a Platinum member, Enphase intends to contribute its two decades of distributed power electronics experience to OCP's power-related projects. Enphase recently announced the development of its IQ^® Solid-State Transformer (IQ^® SST), a distributed architecture designed to support AI data center power conversion. Enphase believes open industry collaboration will be an important part of developing the standards that may shape this emerging market.

"Open collaboration is essential to solving hard infrastructure problems at scale, and AI data center power is no exception," said Badri Kothandaraman, president and CEO of Enphase Energy. "We are proud to join the Open Compute Project and contribute our distributed power electronics experience to the Community’s work on next-generation data center power. We believe open standards can help the ecosystem deliver power infrastructure that is more reliable, serviceable, and scalable."

"We are excited to welcome Enphase Energy to the Open Compute Project as a Platinum member," said George Tchaparian, CEO of the Open Compute Project Foundation. "Enphase’s decades of power and energy expertise are a natural fit as our Community works to standardize power architectures for the next generation of AI data centers."

Enphase joins a growing community of nearly 700 OCP member organizations collaborating to make data center infrastructure more efficient, scalable, and open.
