EV charging guide
What should be checked before charger installation?
Prepare the vehicle, parking, cable route and electrical details needed for assessment.
Read the guide ↓
Storage guide
How is a battery system planned?
Define the loads, backup duration and integration needs that determine a suitable design.
Read the guide ↓01Solar guide
Begin with the bill, the roof and the objective.
Understand how electricity use, available area and connection details influence planning.
Estimate solar opportunity ↗Review usable roof space
Orientation, shade, structure, access and obstructions affect the practical module layout.
Confirm the connection
Supply type, sanctioned load, meter arrangement and existing panels influence design.
Define the priority
Bill reduction, future EV charging or backup needs may change the architecture.
02EV charging guide
Plan around the vehicle, parking and available power.
Prepare the vehicle, parking, cable route and electrical details needed for assessment.
Explore EV charging ↗Check compatibility
Model, connector, battery size and onboard limit determine usable charging power.
Understand charging time
Typical distance and available charging window shape the requirement.
Map the cable route
Location, panel distance, access and weather exposure need review.
Assess electrical capacity
Connected load, phases, protection and load management must be considered.
03Storage guide
Define what must stay powered and for how long.
Define the loads, backup duration and integration needs that determine a suitable design.
Explore battery storage ↗List priority equipment
Identify what must operate during an outage.
Set the required duration
Backup hours and load help estimate usable energy capacity.
Account for peak power
Motors and pumps may require higher starting power.
Review compatibility
Solar, inverter architecture and electrical conditions affect integration.
Common energy terms, explained simply.
kW
Power capacity at a particular moment.
kWh
Energy generated, consumed or stored over time.
On-grid
A solar system connected to the electricity grid.
Hybrid
A system designed to coordinate solar, grid and battery storage.
