Why Cabarita Beach 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 Cabarita Beach we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.

The Tweed runs from the border at Tweed Heads down the coast to Pottsville and inland along the river to Murwillumbah and Uki, a mix of beach houses, river-flat towns and hinterland acreage. Our ev chargers work in Cabarita Beach also covers neighbouring Bogangar, Hastings Point and Tanglewood, all within about 4km.

  • Being close to the water, Cabarita Beach 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.

Cabarita Beach: a local snapshot

The first big development here was the original Cabarita Hotel, which opened its doors on 17 December 1960. That building has since been replaced by a modern structure of glass, chrome and concrete. Locally, Cabarita Beach and Bogangar are often used interchangeably, and more residents tend to go with the Cabarita name.

Right on the ocean, roofs here take a steady dose of salt spray, so stainless or marine-rated fixings and the odd freshwater rinse help keep a system producing well for its full life.

EV chargers in Cabarita Beach: questions

Still unsure? Talk to us directly. You will speak with the people who do the work.

Call 0449 942 735

How 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 Cabarita Beach 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.
