Why charge with us

The world is changing — power your EV from the sun and be part of the energy transition.

Faster Charging

A dedicated EV charger provides up to 5x faster charging than a standard outlet, enabling quicker, more convenient sessions and reducing downtime.

Smart Charging

Charge at home or business with greater convenience — overnight, during off-peak hours, or straight from your solar panels, without relying on public stations.

Cost Savings

Pairing an EV charger with solar lets you run your car on free power from your roof — big savings on fuel, maintenance and running costs over time.

Energy Independence

Solar, battery storage and EV charging together give you true energy independence — generate, store and use your own power, day and night.

EV home charging

Wake up to a full battery

Charging at home means a full battery every morning. We install smart Level 2 home chargers that top up your EV many times faster than a standard wall socket, with built-in safety features like fault protection and temperature monitoring.

  • Fast Level 2 charging — far quicker than a standard plug
  • Smart scheduling to charge when power is cheapest
  • Solar integration so you can charge from your own panels
  • Dynamic load management so you never overload your home's supply
EV apartment charging

EV Charging FAQs

A standard wall socket (Level 1) adds roughly 7.5–15 km of range per hour, while a dedicated Level 2 home charger adds around 18–40 km per hour — so most EVs charge fully overnight. Faster Level 2 and DC chargers add range even more quickly.

On average it costs about 28c per kWh to charge at home — far cheaper than filling up with petrol. Charging overnight on off-peak rates, or straight from your own solar, brings the cost down even further.

Level 1 uses a standard wall socket and is the slowest. Level 2 is a dedicated home or commercial charger that can be up to around ten times faster. DC fast charging is used in commercial settings and can charge many vehicles in under an hour.

Yes. The chargers we install are compatible with all electric vehicles sold in New Zealand, including Tesla, BMW, Hyundai, Kia, Volvo and more.

Absolutely — it is what we do best. We can integrate your charger with an Affordable Solar system so you charge from your own panels, and smart chargers let you see exactly how much power is coming from solar versus the grid.

Most homes can have a Level 2 charger installed without major upgrades. Our smart chargers use dynamic load management to stay within your home's supply, which usually avoids a costly switchboard upgrade. We assess your property before every installation.

Yes. We design and install shared charging for apartment complexes and body corporates, as well as scalable workplace and fleet charging for businesses — including billing and management platforms.

Quick, efficient, and affordable.

The team were great to deal with from getting a quote to the install. I cannot fault them.

If you are on the fence, I would recommend you give them a go.

Affordable energy services were great! Quick responses and quick to visit and quote. They provided a few options and took our concerns and priorities into consideration. Their pricing for the solution was also very competitive. The team to came to install were polite, quick and if there were any decisions or options, they ensured we provided input. Extremely happy with the entire service. Our solution was a split system (two indoor units, one outdoor). Thank you! Definitely recommend!

I’ve had x2 heat pumps installed by Affordable Energy. Venky and the team provide great service and quick turn around. They are very professional and made some helpful suggestions for installing a heat pump to my cabin. Used black piping to match the exterior of the cabin and not attaching the heatpump directly to the cabin to avoid vibration . Very good prices to better than most of their competitors . I would not hesitate in recommending them to friends and family. If we need another heat pump these are the only guys to contact. Thanks team awesome job.
