The global migration to electric mobility is accelerating, and the synergy between an Electric Vehicle (EV) and a home solar installation is undeniable. For homeowners with solar, an EV acts as a large battery on wheels that is perfectly positioned to consume clean, free energy directly from the sun.

The migration to electric mobility is another excellent way to utilise the energy from your solar installation. Many people are not aware that their home-based electric car spends most of its time at home in the day. This timing is ideal, as it aligns perfectly with peak solar generation, meaning your EV is well suited to charge with free sun energy. This makes the running cost of your electric vehicle minimal compared to fueling a petrol or diesel vehicle or charging from the grid during high-tariff hours.

EV chargers are simple installations, and we are well versed in ensuring the appropriate solution for your EV. The charging landscape is diverse, involving various charging levels (Level 1, Level 2) and connector types. Our service includes:

1. Load Analysis: We assess your home’s current electrical capacity and your solar output to determine the fastest, safest, and most efficient charger that can be installed without overloading your system.
2. Appropriate Hardware Selection: We advise on the best brands and charger types, whether you require a simple wall-mounted unit or a smart charger that allows for scheduling and load management to prioritise charging during peak solar generation.
