EV charger installation in Upper Mount Gravatt
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
Why Upper Mount Gravatt 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 Upper Mount Gravatt we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.

Upper Mount Gravatt: a local snapshot
The state school opened in 1929 and Catholic schools followed, with St Bernard's in 1953, Clairvaux in 1966 and St Catherine's in 1973. The big change came in 1970, when Westfield opened a $10 million shopping centre on an 11 hectare site. In 1985 the MacKillop and Clairvaux colleges merged into the school that still operates today.
For households near the busway who are out at work or school all day, pairing panels with a battery helps shift midday solar into the evening, when most power gets used.
