EV charger installation in Mitchelton
Charge your car overnight or straight from your solar. A neat, safe home charger installed by electricians who understand solar.
EV Charger Installation Mitchelton: local, honest, done right
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 Mitchelton we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
Brisbane's west takes in leafy riverside suburbs like Indooroopilly, Kenmore and Chapel Hill, the Centenary suburbs, and hillier, tree-lined streets around The Gap, Ashgrove and Ferny Grove where shading needs careful planning. We look after Mitchelton and the surrounding suburbs of Gaythorne, Keperra and Arana Hills, so a free on-site measure in 4053 is easy to book.

About Mitchelton
Nicholas Mitchell's estate, called Mitchelton by 1875, gave the suburb its name, though St Matthews Anglican Church on the hill is older, built between 1867 and 1869. Subdivision began in the 1890s, and the Oxford Park Estate sold in 1913 near the coming railway. Grovely State School opened in 1916 and took the Mitchelton name in 1923.
A north-facing slope is good news for solar, since many roofs here naturally angle toward the midday sun. Leafy streets still mean checking for overhanging trees before settling on panel placement.

Call 0449 942 735How much does it cost to install an EV charger?

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.
