Costs
Installation pricing, running costs per kilometre and payback periods.
Installation cost depends on cable run, board condition and hardware — not your car's brand. We quote fixed prices.

Home EV charging costs in Australia
What actually drives the cost of charging an EV at home in Australia — electricity tariffs, efficiency, solar, and how it compares with fuel.
What this topic covers
What moves the installation price
Distance, phase, wall type, and whether a board upgrade or load management is needed.
Hardware versus labour
Both are itemised so you can see what changing charger brand does to the total.
Running cost per kilometre
A typical EV uses 15–18kWh per 100km — multiply by your rate for cost per 100km.
Payback
A home charger commonly pays for itself within a year or two versus public DC charging.
