Zappi Solar EV Charger
ECO-SMART TECHNOLOGY
Zappi is a smart EV (electric vehicle) charger with a difference and will charge any electic vehicle or hybrid. Not only does it operate as a traditional EV charger, it can also charge your EV using 100% free energy generated from your solar PV or wind generation.
It comes with a charging cable attached (tethered) or unattached (untethered). It comes with 3 charging modes: ECO, ECO+ and FAST charge. The eco modes are using solar or wind generated energy. The zappy has advanced integral safety features, saving time and money on the installation process.
Set to charge at night time rates if you have this facility set up with your electricity provider. All controllable by using the myenergi app.
If you don’t have a PV system you can use the Zappi as a traditional EV charger. You can add solar PV or wind generated energy at a later stage and there is no additional parts or labour involved, just simply connect to the Zappi.
Three electric car charging modes
This mode is a mixture of both green energy and energy imported from the grid. eco mode minimises the use of grid power and can charge using 100% green energy. The charging power is continuously adjusted in response to changes in generation or power being used elsewhere in the home.
If the surplus generation drops below 1.4kw some power will be drawn from the grid to top it back up.
Charge power is continuously adjusted in response to changes in generation or power consumption elsewhere in the home. Your EV charger will pause if there is too much-imported power, continuing only when there is surplus free power available.
In this mode, the vehicle will be charged at maximum power. This power can come from a renewable energy source or simply from the grid.
If you don’t have solar panels or wind generation, zappi will charge just like an ordinary Mode 3 charging point.
