EV charger installation in Alderley
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
EV chargers for Alderley, planned around your home
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 Alderley we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
Brisbane's west takes in leafy riverside suburbs like Indooroopilly, Kenmore and Chapel Hill, the Centenary suburbs, and hillier, tree-lined streets around The Gap, Ashgrove and Ferny Grove where shading needs careful planning. From Alderley to nearby Grange and Newmarket, we quote every job in person so the price you sign is the price you pay.

Getting to know Alderley
Alderley Edge in Cheshire inspired the name when the area was established in 1878, the same year its post office opened. Turrbal people are the traditional owners. The railway station followed in 1899, and housing estates were auctioned in waves in 1890, 1914, the early 1920s and 1937. Council trams ran here between 1949 and 1968.
Alderley's established blocks from estates sold between 1890 and 1937 often carry mature trees and neighbouring roofs at close range, so a quick shade check helps decide panel placement before choosing system size.

Call 0449 942 735How much does it cost to install an EV charger?
A 7kW charger is typically $1,000 to $2,300 installed. If your switchboard needs an upgrade, allow another $800 to $2,200. We give a fixed price after a quick check.
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.
Do I need three phase power?
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.

Often, yes, subject to body corporate approval and the building supply. We can provide the technical details your body corporate will ask for.
