EV charger installation in Cannon Hill
Charge your car overnight or straight from your solar. A neat, safe home charger installed by electricians who understand solar.
Why Cannon Hill 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 Cannon Hill we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
Inner Brisbane is full of character: Queenslanders, workers cottages and townhouses on small lots in places like Paddington, West End, New Farm and Bulimba, where neat installs and careful panel layout matter. Our ev chargers work in Cannon Hill also covers neighbouring Carina, Seven Hills and Murarrie, all within about 2km.

Cannon Hill: a local snapshot
Two fallen trees that looked like a cannon gave Thornhill Weedon the name for his house, built in 1867, and the suburb most likely took its name from it. The area stayed largely bush until the Cleveland railway arrived in 1889. Brisbane's livestock saleyards moved here from Newmarket in 1931, and in 1973 a Kmart plaza replaced the old drive-in.
Being close to the rail line and shops does not change the sun, but the mix of older homes and heritage-listed sites means roof condition and orientation should be checked before choosing panel layout.

EV chargers in Cannon Hill: questions
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 Cannon Hill 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.
