Overview
Enphase Energy is resizing after a shift in the US residential solar market. The company says it is cutting about 6% of its global workforce (around 160 employees) as it prepares for lower near-term demand and pursues cost reductions through restructuring and automation. The move is linked to a change in US policy affecting residential solar economics, which Enphase expects will weigh on demand from homeowners who would otherwise have benefited from the federal credit.
