Even When the Sun Sets, The Savings Continue:
For times when you choose to charge your car from the grid, you'll still benefit from significant savings:
- ✓ Electric charging costs approximately 2p per mile (based on 7p per kWh overnight Octopus Intelligent Go rates)
- ✓ Conventional vehicles cost around 15p per mile (AA driving expenses report)
- ✓ Home charging stations qualify for a £350 OLEV grant to reduce installation costs
By integrating your EV charger with your solar system, you create a complete personalised energy system that maximises self-generated power while providing flexible backup options that still outperform traditional fuel costs.

Choosing and installing the right electric car charger is far more complex than many realise. Without proper design consideration, you may face costly incompatibilities, unnecessary expenses, and frustrating limitations that impact your charging experience.
At the heart of successful EV charging infrastructure lies a thoughtful, personalised approach. Good charge point design isn't simply about installing hardware — it's about creating a seamless energy solution tailored to your specific requirements. This means selecting the right EV charger with appropriate power capacity, optimal location, essential functionality, and suitable payment options.
By partnering with energy experts who understand the complete Energy System, you're investing in a future-proof solution that evolves with your needs — saving time, money, and frustration while maximising the benefits of electric vehicle ownership.

There are two types of home EV chargers suitable for modern electric cars: tethered cable or untethered. Our energy experts will assess your energy patterns and needs, your EV charger access points, and the complete energy solution you are looking for before recommending the most suitable EV charger installation.
Tethered Chargers
Come with a power cable permanently attached to the unit. The charging cable has a Type 2 plug attached which has become the worldwide industry standard.
Tethered chargers offer the ultimate convenience — simply plug in and charge without needing a separate cable. Ideal for households with a single electric vehicle.
Untethered Chargers
Do not come with a cable attached to the unit, meaning you will need to use a separate cable to charge. Untethered chargers offer greater flexibility — ideal if you have multiple electric vehicles, each with different connector types.
The universal socket means the charger is future-proofed as EV technology evolves. It costs just £4.50 to fully charge your electric car*, which will get you 155 miles.
