EV charger installation in Kirra
Charge your car overnight or straight from your solar. A neat, safe home charger installed by electricians who understand solar.
Why Kirra 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 Kirra we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
The southern Gold Coast stretches from Coolangatta and the beaches of Palm Beach and Burleigh back to Robina, Mudgeeraba and the valleys of Currumbin and Tallebudgera, with everything from beachfront units to acreage. Our ev chargers work in Kirra also covers neighbouring Rainbow Bay, Tweed Heads and Coolangatta, all within about 2km.
- Being close to the water, Kirra gets salt-laden sea breezes. We use corrosion-resistant racking, stainless fixings and panels and inverters rated for coastal sites, and we design to the local wind loading.

Kirra: a local snapshot
Kirra was seldom visited by Europeans before 1840, and holidaymakers only began arriving after that. In April 1914, 18 residential and business sites went under the hammer, and the opening of the South Coast Road in the 1930s made family camping popular. The name comes from Kirra Hill, which first appears on an 1883 survey plan and is believed to be Indigenous, though its meaning is unconfirmed.
Homes and units facing Kirra Beach sit in constant salt-laden onshore winds, so panels with salt mist certification and stainless fixings are a must, along with an easy plan for rinsing the array.

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.
