Introducing the zappi EV Charger - Charge your vehicle using solar panels, the grid, or both
You don’t need solar panels or a wind power system to use the zappi. But purchasing it today, means you’re future fit for tomorrow.
zappi is an EV charger with a difference. zappi can operate as a standard home car charger, using power from the grid. It also has optional charging modes which use 100% green energy generated from your own home Solar PV system or wind generation.
Using your own power generation increases the Return On Investment (ROI) for your panels and electric car. And means that you can charge your EV at home for free! zappi is easy to install and user friendly, plus it will still operate as a standard car charger harnessing power from the grid.

zappi is the only electric vehicle charger with built-in PEN fault technology. It’s the safest choice for an electric car charger, eliminating the need to install additional earth rods means no extra costs and an easy install.
- PV charging
zappi works in harmony with your Solar PV or wind generation, meaning you can charge your car using green energy for free. If you haven’t got a renewable energy source at home, zappi works just like any other charger in ‘fast mode’.

EV Charger Installation FAQs
An electric vehicle (EV) charger is a device that supplies your vehicle’s battery with electrical energy, suitable for electric cars or plug-in hybrid electric cars.
A dedicated EV charger will provide faster and more efficient electric vehicle charging compared to relying upon a standard household outlet.
It is highly recommended that you hire a qualified electrician to perform a safe and compliant installation, especially when high voltage electricity is involved. Many EV charging stations are rather advanced anyway, far beyond the skills of even a competent DIY electrician.
At present, the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) offers four grants that contribute towards the cost of electric cars and EV charger installations. These being:
- Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme (EVHS)
- Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS)
- On-street residential Chargepoint Scheme (ORCS)
- Plug-in Car Grant (PICG)
Typically you do not need planning permission for an EV charger, although this may be different if you live in a listed building or are located within a conservation area.
Yes, it is possible to install multiple electric vehicle charger points at the same property. Similarly, there are EV charging systems that have multiple charging points available, so two vehicles can be charged at once.
You can charge an EV from the UK’s 13A, 230V socket which gives 3kW power delivery. However, this approach is rather slow in comparison to charging your vehicle using a specialist EV charging point.
There are many factors that will determine how long it takes to charge your EV, including the size of your electric vehicle’s battery. However, in terms of different types of EV charger, there are 3 main ‘levels’, these being different types of current, voltage and connector type. A level 1 charger is a slow charger, that will typically charge an EV from empty to full between 11 and 20 hours. A level 2 charger, which typically is an AC charger with 240V and a J1772 Connector, will charge a vehicle in 3 to 8 hours. A Level 3 charger is typically reserved for public superchargers.
