The Benefits of a Home EV Charger

Installing an EV charger at your home offers numerous benefits:

Cost Savings

Charging your electric vehicle at home is generally more economical than using public charging stations. By taking advantage of off-peak electricity rates, you can further reduce your energy costs. Many Australian energy providers offer time-of-use plans with discounted rates during specific hours, such as overnight, making home charging a cost-effective option.

Environmental Impact

Charging your EV at home allows you to control the source of your electricity. By utilising renewable energy sources, such as residential solar panels, you can significantly reduce your carbon footprint. This shift contributes to a decrease in greenhouse gas emissions, promoting a cleaner environment and supporting Australia's sustainability goals.

Increased Property Value

Equipping your property with EV charging infrastructure can enhance its appeal and value. As the adoption of electric vehicles rises in Australia, properties with ready-to-use charging facilities become more attractive to potential buyers or tenants. This feature not only adds convenience but also positions your property as forward-thinking and environmentally conscious.

Home EV Charger FAQs

  • EV charging times vary based on the charger's power output and your EV's battery capacity. With a Level 2 charger, you can expect to add approximately 40 km of range per hour, meaning a full charge can take anywhere from 6 to 12 hours, depending on your vehicle's battery size.

  • Yes, but it may require additional approvals from your building's management or owners' corporation. Elite Renewables can help get your EV Charger approved by all necessary parties.
