EV charger installation in Redcliffe
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
Why Redcliffe 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 Redcliffe 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. Our ev chargers work in Redcliffe also covers neighbouring Margate, Newport and Kippa-Ring, all within about 2km.

Redcliffe: a local snapshot
Matthew Flinders came ashore in July 1799 and called the place Red Cliff Point after the coloured cliffs nearby. In September 1824 Lieutenant Henry Miller set up a penal colony here with 14 soldiers and 29 convicts, but it moved to the Brisbane River within a year. The area later became a popular seaside resort in the 1880s, and the Hornibrook Bridge in 1935 opened the way for suburban growth.
Redcliffe mixes older beachside houses with apartment towers, so options range from a standard rooftop array on a house to shared systems for strata buildings. Salt air off the bay calls for marine grade fixings.

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.
