Charge your car overnight or straight from your solar. A neat, safe home charger installed by electricians who understand solar.
EV chargers for Murwillumbah, planned around your home
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 Murwillumbah we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
The Tweed runs from the border at Tweed Heads down the coast to Pottsville and inland along the river to Murwillumbah and Uki, a mix of beach houses, river-flat towns and hinterland acreage. From Murwillumbah to nearby South Murwillumbah and Dunbible, we quote every job in person so the price you sign is the price you pay.
- Low-lying pockets of Murwillumbah sit inside council flood mapping. Where it matters we mount inverters and batteries above the flood planning level and keep isolators easy to reach.

Getting to know Murwillumbah
Timber-getters came to the Tweed in the 1840s, but the town site was not surveyed until 1872 and became a village on 31 March 1879. The railway arrived in 1894 and a municipality followed in 1902. On 15 September 1907, remembered as Red Sunday, fire destroyed most of the business district, which was rebuilt in brick within a year.
In a river town protected by flood levees, it makes sense to mount batteries and inverters well above the ground floor, and older Art Deco era buildings may need roof and switchboard checks before panels go on.
