EV charger installation in Advancetown
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
Why Advancetown homes choose RS Energy for ev chargers
A standard power point adds only about 10km of range an hour. A dedicated 7kW wall charger is around four times faster, and a solar-aware charger can soak up your surplus solar during the day instead of exporting it for a few cents.
We check your switchboard and main supply, recommend single or three phase charging, and install the charger neatly where your car actually parks. In Advancetown we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
The central Gold Coast takes in the high-rise strip from Broadbeach to Main Beach, the canal homes of Bundall, Benowa and Isle of Capri, and family suburbs like Ashmore, Nerang and Carrara. Our ev chargers work in Advancetown also covers neighbouring Gilston, Clagiraba and Highland Park, all within about 6km.
- Plenty of Advancetown properties are on acreage, which opens up ground-mounted arrays, sheds and larger systems. Rural feeders also see more outages, so battery backup is popular here.

Advancetown: a local snapshot
Timber cutters came in the 1870s, and David Yuan's sawmill of 1881 marked the start of European settlement. Ernest Belliss opened the Advancetown Hotel in 1905 and gave land for a school, which lent the place its name. The original village disappeared under water when Hinze Dam Stage 1 was finished in 1976. The locality was briefly called Latimer from 1979 before Advancetown returned in 1985.
Acreage and grazing properties around Advancetown have room for larger arrays or ground mounts, and with homes spread out on rural roads, a battery that can back up pumps and essentials during outages is a practical choice.

Can I charge my EV from solar?
Yes. A solar-aware charger adjusts its charging speed to match your surplus solar, so you use your own power instead of exporting it. It works best if the car is home during the day.

No. Most homes are well served by a 7kW single phase charger, which comfortably fills most cars overnight. Three phase allows 11kW to 22kW if your home already has it.
