Charging an electric vehicle from a standard power point works, but it is slow, typically adding around 10-15 km of range per hour. A dedicated 7 kW wall charger is several times faster and much better suited to daily driving. It typically adds around 35-50 km of range per hour, depending on the vehicle, so most cars are comfortably charged by morning or topped up during the day from solar.

A supplied and installed 7 kW home charger starts from $1,690. This is an indicative starting price; the final fixed price is confirmed in writing after we check your switchboard, supply and cable route.

What's included

  • A check of your switchboard, supply capacity and preferred charger location
  • A 7 kW single-phase smart EV charger with app control
  • A dedicated circuit with appropriate protection at the switchboard
  • Standard garage or carport wall installation, including a standard cable run
  • Set-up of solar-aware charging modes where your system supports them
  • Installation by our licensed electricians, with testing and a certificate of compliance

Why Blue Energy Solar

We treat the charger as part of your home energy system, not a standalone gadget. If you have solar, a smart charger can use surplus generation that would otherwise be exported for a few cents per kWh. Where you have or plan a Sigenergy, GoodWe, Fox ESS or Sungrow hybrid system, we consider integrated charging options that share its monitoring; otherwise we choose a quality standalone smart charger. We also check that your switchboard and supply can handle the extra load safely, so the charger does not trip circuits when the oven and air-conditioning are running at the same time.

Recommended for

EV owners with single-phase power who want faster, smarter home charging than a standard power point.

Vehicle limits: your car's onboard charger sets the maximum AC charging speed. Some vehicles accept less than 7 kW, in which case the charger simply delivers what the car can take.

Cable run: the starting price covers a standard installation reasonably close to the switchboard. Longer runs, trenching or mounting on a pedestal are priced separately.

Supply: older homes may need a switchboard upgrade before a charger can be added safely, and your network's connection rules may also apply to large loads.

Price drivers: distance from the switchboard, wall construction, switchboard space and whether load management is needed.

2. We confirm supply capacity, the cable route and any switchboard work needed.
3. You receive a fixed-price quote for the charger and installation.
4. Our licensed electricians install and test the charger and its dedicated circuit.
5. We set up the app, solar-aware modes and charging schedules with you.

Warnings

The price shown is an indicative starting price for a standard installation; the final fixed price is confirmed in writing after a site check and quote.
Cable runs beyond the standard length, trenching, pedestals or switchboard upgrades are quoted separately.
Solar-aware charging requires compatible solar monitoring or an energy meter at the switchboard.
Charging speed is limited by your vehicle's onboard charger and your home's available supply.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you drive short distances and the car sits at home overnight, a power point can be enough. A 7 kW charger suits longer daily driving, households with two EVs, or anyone who wants to charge mainly from solar, because the faster rate makes better use of limited daytime hours. It also avoids running a household outlet at high load for long periods.

Yes. In solar-aware mode the charger adjusts its output to match surplus solar, measured by an energy meter or your inverter's monitoring. Most cars need a minimum charging current, so on cloudy days charging may pause or draw some grid power, depending on the mode you choose. You can also schedule top-ups for cheaper tariff times.

Not always. Many homes have the space and capacity for a dedicated charger circuit. Older boards with ceramic fuses, no room for new protection devices or signs of heat damage usually need upgrading first. We check this before quoting, so any switchboard work is included in your fixed price rather than discovered on installation day.

Chargers with a Type 2 connector suit most EVs and plug-in hybrids sold in Australia. The charging speed depends on each vehicle's onboard charger, so some cars charge at less than 7 kW. Tell us your vehicle model when requesting a quote, and we will confirm compatibility and the charging speed you can expect.
