Smart, Reliable EV Charging at Home

In many cases, yes. Having a 60A main fuse does not automatically prevent you from having a home EV charger.

Before installation, we assess your existing electrical demand, incoming supply and proposed charger. Modern EV chargers can also use dynamic load management, automatically reducing the charging rate when your property is using more electricity and increasing it again when capacity becomes available.

Depending on the property, the existing supply may be suitable, or an upgrade or further approval from the Distribution Network Operator (DNO) may be required.

Greenio will assess this before installation and advise you on the correct solution.

EV charger installations must follow the appropriate Distribution Network Operator (DNO) connection process.

Depending on your existing supply, maximum electrical demand and proposed charger, the installation may be eligible for a connect-and-notify process or may require DNO approval before connection.

You don't need to work this out yourself. Greenio assesses the electrical requirements and manages the appropriate notification or application process as part of your installation.

If your consumer unit, earthing arrangements or other parts of the electrical installation require work, we'll also identify this during our assessment.

Yes – and this is where EV charging can become part of a much smarter home energy system.

A compatible smart EV charger can use surplus electricity generated by your solar panels to help charge your vehicle rather than exporting that energy to the grid.

Solar PV can also be combined with battery storage and EV charging, allowing energy to be managed intelligently between your home, battery and vehicle.

As Greenio designs and installs solar PV, battery storage and EV charging, we can look at your complete energy requirements rather than treating the charger as a standalone product.

The cost of an EV charger installation depends on the charger selected, cable route, location of your consumer unit, electrical supply and whether additional electrical work is required.

Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all installation, Greenio assesses your property and provides a clear quotation based on what is actually required.

Charging at home can also be considerably cheaper than relying solely on public rapid chargers, particularly when using off-peak or EV electricity tariffs. Combining your charger with solar PV can potentially reduce your reliance on purchased grid electricity even further.

Greenio provides professional home and commercial EV charger installation across Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, Leicestershire and the wider East Midlands.

We take an engineering-led approach, considering your electrical supply, existing energy use, vehicle, charging requirements and future plans before recommending a solution.

For businesses, we can also design multiple workplace EV charger installations with intelligent load management, helping sites make the best use of their available electrical capacity and plan for future EV demand.

And because Greenio also specialises in solar PV and battery storage, we can design your EV charger as part of a complete renewable energy solution.
