EV charger installation in Helensvale
Charge your car overnight or straight from your solar. A neat, safe home charger installed by electricians who understand solar.
Why Helensvale 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 Helensvale we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
The northern Gold Coast is one of the fastest growing parts of Queensland, from the canals of Runaway Bay and Hope Island to new estates in Coomera, Pimpama and Ormeau and semi-rural blocks around Wongawallan.

Helensvale: a local snapshot
Arthur Robinson and Ernest White set up a sugar plantation here around 1870, and the plantation name, which honours White's youngest sister Helena, stuck to the district. It was declared a locality on 31 March 1979, but the first residents did not move in until the 1980s. The state school opened in 1984, the high school in 1990 and Westfield Helensvale on 13 October 2005.
Helensvale's mix of 1980s and 1990s family homes and newer canal houses means roofs vary in age and size, so checking the condition of older tiles or sheeting first helps decide how big a system and battery the house can carry.

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.
