EV charger installation in Robertson
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
EV chargers for Robertson, 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 Robertson we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
Brisbane's southside covers older post-war suburbs like Annerley, Moorooka and Holland Park, the busy family areas around Sunnybank, Mansfield and Carindale, and newer pockets at Pallara and Forest Lake. From Robertson to nearby Sunnybank and Nathan, we quote every job in person so the price you sign is the price you pay.

Getting to know Robertson
In the mid-1960s this was the unsubdivided southern end of Sunnybank. The Place Names Board named it in August 1967 after Dr William Nathaniel Robertson of the University of Queensland Senate. Things moved quickly after Sunnybank Plaza and Griffith's Nathan campus both opened in 1975: the population went from 945 in 1976 to over 3,000 a decade later, and Robertson State School opened in 1980.
In a suburb that is almost entirely houses and mostly built from the late 1970s, roofs are now several decades old, so checking their condition is a smart first step before panels go up.

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.
