EV Charging Points

Electric Car Chargers

The choice of electric vehicles (EV) is now available to us growing on a weekly basis with more and more manufacturers bringing new models to market.

The ICE (internal combustion engine) needs to be replaced with something that is cleaner, better for the environment and our health, with more and more evidence of diesel particulates causing ill health, especially in children, we are all having to embrace EV’s sooner rather than later.

EV charging points will be a necessity when you buy your first electric vehicle. You can charge your vehicle with a EV charging unit that plugs directly into a standard 3 pin socket as we have throughout our workplaces. It will take in some cases several days to charge the batteries, where a 7kW EV charger will happily do this job overnight whilst you sleep, with even the biggest current batteries in an EV of 100kWh charging in 14 hours from basically flat to full.

EV Charging FAQs

Zappi Charging Stations

Future proofing

As our country progresses further into reducing carbon emissions, the government will be applying more pressure to switch to electric vehicles.

Additional revenue by selling electricity

You can sell charge to EV drivers at a profit, more stations, more electricity sold!

Customer visit duration

Needing to spend time to charge their vehicle will encourage your customer to stay longer.

Increase your foot traffic

Nearly 30,000 charging points will be needed in the UK by 2030. Customers will appreciate the charging availability.

There are government grants available to help with the cost of your EV charger. Contact us to learn more.

Currently the cars are more expensive to buy, but there are very attractive deals making their way in to the marketplace and the price of the batteries is dropping so we expect to see EV and ICE cars at a similar level within the next 2-3 years.

This depends on the vehicle, so called self charging hybrids do not have a charging connection (or a very good range on the battery) but everything else can be charged.

You do not need to have a charger at home and some properties do not lend themselves to an installation, but having the option to charge the car overnight on cheaper electricity is a bonus that should not be given up lightly.

This depends on the car and the charger along with the current state of the battery, but the 7kW chargers that we would normally fit at a home would charge your vehicle from 10% to 80% charged within 5-9 hours.

If you have a 3 phase supply, which is more common in commercial buildings but can also be found in larger domestic homes, your EV charging point can be increased quite simply to a 22kW unit. This will charge almost all of the electric vehicles currently available from 10% to full in around 4 hours, adding in most cases hundreds of miles of motoring.

EV chargers come in various forms, our preferred unit is the Zappi which is made in the UK by a UK company that has a great reputation. They make many other units that can compliment your EV charger, especially if you have PV fitted to your property. The Zappi electric car charger will combine very effectively with a range of Commercial storage batteries and smart HW systems that really do make the most of the current offerings from energy supply companies and their ever changing tariffs.

We supply and fit Zappi EV chargers made by the British company Myenergi. They work smartly and have several modes where they can, if necessary, charge at times where your solar power that’s being generated on the roof has an excess that can be trickle fed in to the car to top up.

Everything is controlled by an app on your phone, if you don’t have solar panels, no problem, they can charge at any time you deem appropriate and even work with the new tariffs mentioned in our Solar Battery Storage page where you can charge your EV charger at night when the power is less expensive and even free!
