EV Charging Case Study: A homeowner's perspective



Fuel Your Car on Sunshine
Passing the petrol station and driving straight home to charge your electric car in your garage brings a sense of empowerment. But just like in the past when you would try to find the petrol station with the lowest prices, there are different ways to charge your EV that can save you money as well.
Whether you have dynamic pricing or a flat rate from your power company, using a home solar energy system gives you control over the way you produce, store, and consume your own power. For example, charging an EV at off-peak times can significantly reduce your electricity bills but for the ultimate in smart energy living, fuel your car in the sunshine.
Neil from Sydney installed a SolarEdge system complete with EV charger at this home. This was his experience.

A SolarEdge energy system does more than just convert sunlight into DC power. For example, the SolarEdge Home smart energy ecosystem features an optional integrated Level 2 EV Charger. It’s algorithm-based energy management system knows when to use free solar power, stored power, or low cost (off peak) grid power for EV charging to maximise homeowner savings. With SolarEdge monitoring software, you can see how much energy your solar panels are generating, and how you are using it, leading to smarter and more cost-effective EV charging.
