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

North Brisbane and Moreton Bay run from Albany Creek and Strathpine through North Lakes and Narangba to Caboolture and Bribie Island, taking in the Redcliffe Peninsula and acreage around Samford and Dayboro. Our ev chargers work in Griffin also covers neighbouring Murrumba Downs, Mango Hill and Brighton, all within about 4km.

  • Newer homes in Griffin usually have clean, unshaded roofs and modern switchboards, which keeps installs quick. Estate covenants rarely restrict solar, but we check before we quote.

Griffin: a local snapshot

Griffin takes its name from a family who came out to Australia from the Orkney Islands in Scotland. For a long time it was a quiet mix of farms and houses, then the numbers took off. Around 2,360 people lived here in 2011, about 6,840 by 2016 and more than 12,000 by 2021. Griffin State School opened its doors at the start of 2016 to keep up.

Plenty of Griffin's housing is recent estate construction, which often means modern roofs with clean, unshaded runs that suit a well laid out array and a battery sized for busy family evenings.

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 Griffin 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.
