Charge your car overnight or straight from your solar. A neat, safe home charger installed by electricians who understand solar.
EV chargers for Doolandella, 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 Doolandella we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
Brisbane's southside covers older post-war suburbs like Annerley, Moorooka and Holland Park, the busy family areas around Sunnybank, Mansfield and Carindale, and newer pockets at Pallara and Forest Lake. From Doolandella to nearby Forest Lake and Heathwood, we quote every job in person so the price you sign is the price you pay.

Getting to know Doolandella
Doolandella became an official suburb in 1976. Its name comes from a Yuggera word for the geebung, a broad leaved shrub with yellow fruit. Growth has been quick in recent years, with the population climbing from about 3,100 in 2011 to roughly 4,800 in 2016 and more than 7,100 by 2021 as new homes filled the area.
With the population more than doubling since 2011, many roofs are newer and unshaded on family homes, which makes adding panels straightforward and leaves room for a battery later.

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.

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.
