EV charger installation in Wynnum
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
Why Wynnum 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 Wynnum we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
Brisbane's bayside east, from Wynnum and Manly through Tingalpa and Wakerley, mixes breezy bayfront homes with quieter family streets, and salt air near the water is a real design consideration. Our ev chargers work in Wynnum also covers neighbouring Manly, Wynnum West and Manly West, all within about 3km.
- Being close to the water, Wynnum gets salt-laden sea breezes. We use corrosion-resistant racking, stainless fixings and panels and inverters rated for coastal sites, and we design to the local wind loading.
- Many Wynnum homes are character Queenslanders and older workers cottages with corrugated iron roofs. Tin roofs are quick to mount on, and we keep conduit runs neat and out of sight on heritage-style facades.

Wynnum: a local snapshot
The Quandamooka connection to this shoreline goes back more than 25,000 years. Europeans first settled near the mouth of Wynnum Creek, and Aboriginal men helped build the first jetty in the 1850s. Once the railway came through in the late 1880s, growth picked up fast. A shire council formed in 1902, and Wynnum was folded into the City of Brisbane in 1925.
Homes this close to Moreton Bay cop salty breezes, so it pays to ask about corrosion ratings on panels, rails and fixings, and to keep inverters and batteries out of the direct sea air where possible.

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.

Often, yes, subject to body corporate approval and the building supply. We can provide the technical details your body corporate will ask for.
