EV charger installation in Broadbeach
Charge your car overnight or straight from your solar. A neat, safe home charger installed by electricians who understand solar.
EV Charger Installation Broadbeach: local, honest, done right
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 Broadbeach 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. We look after Broadbeach and the surrounding suburbs of Mermaid Beach, Mermaid Waters and Broadbeach Waters, so a free on-site measure in 4218 is easy to book.
- Being close to the water, Broadbeach gets salt-laden sea breezes. We use corrosion-resistant racking, stainless fixings and panels and inverters rated for coastal sites, and we design to the local wind loading.

About Broadbeach
The Kombumerri clan lived here for thousands of years before British colonisation. Lots from the Mermaid Beach Estate went under the hammer around 1924, and from 1934 the state government developed a Broadbeach township. Holiday building really took off once Lennon's Broadbeach Hotel went up in 1955 and 1956, and Broadbeach State School followed on 16 May 1960.
With so much apartment living near the beach, solar here often means a body corporate decision or a smaller roof, and coastal salt air makes corrosion-resistant hardware a must on any house close to the sand.

Still unsure? Talk to us directly. You will speak with the people who do the work.
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.
Do you install EV chargers in Broadbeach units and townhouses?
Often, yes, subject to body corporate approval and the building supply. We can provide the technical details your body corporate will ask for.
