EV charger installation in Ocean View
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
EV Charger Installation Ocean View: 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 Ocean View 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. We look after Ocean View and the surrounding suburbs of Greenstone, Corymbia and Wagtail Grove, so a free on-site measure in 4521 is easy to book.
- Plenty of Ocean View properties are on acreage, which opens up ground-mounted arrays, sheds and larger systems. Rural feeders also see more outages, so battery backup is popular here.

About Ocean View
A school opened here in April 1922, using a building moved across from Armstrong Creek, and it served local families until 1963. The district has stayed small and rural since, with a volunteer fire brigade and a telephone exchange as its main pieces of public infrastructure. About 1,000 people called it home in 2021.
Acreage on the range is a long way from town, so pairing a ground mounted array with a battery gives backup during outages, as long as trees on surrounding slopes are checked for shading.

EV chargers in Ocean View: questions
Still unsure? Talk to us directly. You will speak with the people who do the work.
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.
Do you install EV chargers in Ocean View 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.
