EV charging that talks to your solar.

A home EV charger is straightforward. A home EV charger that takes its power from your panels first, then your battery, then off-peak grid — that's a system. We install both.

What we install

Chargers that fit how you actually use your car.

Solar-aware smart chargers

Zappi, Wallbox, Ohme — we'll recommend based on your tariff, car, and whether you have or are planning solar.

Load-managed installs

Got a 60 A supply or running close to capacity? Modern chargers manage load so you don't trip the main fuse during the kettle's afternoon.

Commercial bays

Workplace and forecourt charging — we'll size, install and connect networked chargers for back-office billing where needed.

Tidy cable runs

Inside where possible, conduit where not. Not the install you see on Facebook with cable draped across a render wall.

Common questions

EV charging — frequently asked

  • A standard 7.4 kW home charger adds roughly 25 miles of range per hour — enough to fully charge most EVs overnight from low to full on a single off-peak window.

  • Yes. We install smart chargers (Zappi, Wallbox, Ohme and others) that can match the charge rate to your solar output, so the car only charges when your panels are generating excess.

  • Sometimes. Older consumer units without RCD protection or split-load capability may need replacing, and some 60 A supplies need a load-management charger. We check this on the survey before quoting.
