EV charger installation in Fitzgibbon
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
Why Fitzgibbon 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 Fitzgibbon we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.

Fitzgibbon: a local snapshot
Abram Fitzgibbon, Queensland's chief railway engineer in the 1860s, is the man behind the name. For years the area was best known for the council tip on Telegraph Road, which ran from 1981 to 1995 before shifting to Roghan Road. Housing subdivisions spread across the land through the 1980s and 1990s. More recently, Holy Spirit College opened in 2022 for Years 7 to 12.
Homes from the 1980s and 1990s subdivisions are now old enough that many early, small solar systems are due for an upgrade to a larger array with a battery.

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.

Often, yes, subject to body corporate approval and the building supply. We can provide the technical details your body corporate will ask for.
