EV charger installation in Seven Hills
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
EV chargers for Seven Hills, 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 Seven Hills we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
Inner Brisbane is full of character: Queenslanders, workers cottages and townhouses on small lots in places like Paddington, West End, New Farm and Bulimba, where neat installs and careful panel layout matter. From Seven Hills to nearby Norman Park and Morningside, we quote every job in person so the price you sign is the price you pay.

Getting to know Seven Hills
A Victorian mining company, the Seven Hills Estate Co., lent its name, and the hills themselves carry titles from ancient Rome. Robert George Oates' 1925 subdivision added Roman street names too. The Belmont Tramway ran along the southern edge from 1912 to 1926, trolley buses later served the area, the state school opened in 1960 and the suburb was split from Norman Park in 2001.
Hilly streets and a big bushland reserve mean some roofs catch full sun while others sit in afternoon tree shade, so a proper shade check and possibly panel optimisers are worth considering here.

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.

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.
