Smart Timing, Smart Savings

Optimal charging times save money and the environment. By avoiding peak hours, you could save around 20 cents per kilowatt-hour—real savings over a year.

Green Economics

Switching to an EV means emitting only 11 kg of CO2 per 100 km, compared to 17 kg from a petrol car. As the grid gets cleaner, EVs get even greener.

Supporting the System

Smart charging, like excess solar power, helps create a stronger energy network. This benefits everyone in the long run.

Strategic Charging

  1. Cut Costs: Charge off-peak to slash your bills.

  2. Reduce Carbon: Opt for renewable-rich hours to minimize your footprint.

  3. Help the Grid: Smart charging lightens the grid's load, ensuring reliability.

Solar Synergy

Tap into sunny moments for emission-free EV charging. Off-peak charging after 11 pm is also a good option.

Choosing Your Charger

Two main choices:

  1. Standard PowerPoint: Simple daily charging; consider a dedicated circuit.

  2. Home EV Charger: Faster charging, solar harmony, and app control.

Upgrade Option

Consider a three-phase upgrade for faster charging, but consult experts for feasibility and cost.

Home EV charging isn't just about ease—it's about making greener choices. Master your charging timing and method to control costs and contribute to a cleaner future. Whether using solar, practising smart charging, or exploring different setups, your choices today shape a better energy landscape for all.
