Our Recommended Home EV Charger
We install the myenergi Zappi, one of Ireland’s most popular smart EV chargers and an ideal choice for homes with or without solar PV.
The Zappi can operate as a standard fast home charger, but where it really comes into its own is when combined with solar PV allowing you to use surplus solar energy to charge your car instead of exporting it to the grid.
Why We Recommend Zappi
-
Up to 7kW charging on a standard single-phase home supply
-
Compatible with solar PV
-
FAST, ECO and ECO+ charging modes
-
Schedule charging around cheaper electricity tariffs
-
Monitor and control charging through the myenergi app
-
Available tethered or untethered
-
Suitable for the SEAI EV Home Charger Grant
Three Simple Charging Modes
For when you want to charge your car as quickly as possible. Zappi operates like a standard home EV charger, using available grid power together with any solar generation.
A balance between solar and grid charging. Zappi adjusts the charging rate depending on how much surplus solar is available, helping reduce the amount of electricity imported from the grid.
Designed to maximise the use of your surplus solar energy. Charging automatically adjusts or pauses depending on the amount of surplus generation available, making it ideal when you’re happy to leave the car plugged in and let your solar system do the work.
Already Have Solar ?
Put Your Surplus Solar Into Your Car
An EV charger and solar PV are a great combination.
Instead of exporting all of your unused solar electricity to the grid, a Zappi can automatically direct available surplus energy into your electric vehicle.
That means more of the electricity generated on your roof can be used in your own home.

Don't Have Solar? No Problem.
You don’t need solar panels to install a Zappi.
It works as a smart standalone EV charger and can be scheduled to charge your vehicle during lower-cost electricity periods.
And if you decide to install solar PV in the future, your Zappi is already designed to integrate with it.
