EV charger installation in Bahrs Scrub
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
Why Bahrs Scrub 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 Bahrs Scrub we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
Logan blends established suburbs such as Springwood, Shailer Park and Browns Plains with new communities at Yarrabilba, Park Ridge and Logan Reserve, plus acreage through Jimboomba, Greenbank and Munruben. Our ev chargers work in Bahrs Scrub also covers neighbouring Holmview, Windaroo and Waterford, all within about 3km.
- Plenty of Bahrs Scrub 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.
- Newer homes in Bahrs Scrub usually have clean, unshaded roofs and modern switchboards, which keeps installs quick. Estate covenants rarely restrict solar, but we check before we quote.

Bahrs Scrub: a local snapshot
German settlers Carl Wilhelm Bahr and his son Wilhelm gave the area its name, though early records called it Jimmybark Scrub, and the local hill was Bark Hill before becoming Bahrs Hill. The scrubby country stayed thinly settled for a long time. A state school ran from about 1919 until 1929, when too few pupils remained. Windaroo Valley State High School opened in 1994, and council rezoning has driven strong growth over the past decade.
Newer estate homes in Brookhaven suit a clean modern install, while older acreage houses among the hills may need a careful look at slope, aspect and tree shading before panels go up.

Can I charge my EV from solar?
