EV charger installation in Teneriffe
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
EV Charger Installation Teneriffe: 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 Teneriffe 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. We look after Teneriffe and the surrounding suburbs of Newstead, Bulimba and New Farm, so a free on-site measure in 4005 is easy to book.

About Teneriffe
James Gibbon named his property after the Tenerife peak in the Canary Islands, which the local hill reminded him of. Land near Teneriffe House was cut into 30 lots in 1890. The first wool store opened in 1909 and the riverside wharves became Australia's largest submarine base in World War II. Teneriffe was swallowed by Newstead in 1975 before getting its own name back in 2010.
Converted woolstores often have broad roofs that can host shared solar for residents, while restored Queenslanders on Teneriffe Hill can take panels if they are placed with heritage character in mind.

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.
