AJ Renewables offers professional and efficient EV charger installation
services for homes and businesses across Scotland.
An EV car charger provides charging points for your electric vehicle. You can typically find a place to charge your electric vehicle at service stations, car parks or even on the side of the road. These standard installation points can be tricky to access during peak hours as there may not be an open station, plus you might have to drive a bit to find an open station.
A home charger requires alternating current or AC in order to charge your EV. The power supply for your charger can either come directly from the national grid supply or from a renewable energy source such as solar PV panels.
You don’t just have to charge your plug-in electric vehicles in public spaces. You can opt to install a home charging station and set up a smart home system. Adding a home charger to your existing solar system will allow you to enjoy reduced charging costs as charging from home is often cheaper. This is especially true during off-peak hours and even more so if you have a renewable energy supply powering your home.
Above setting up devices for charging at home, we also offer smart charging devices for businesses. EV charging stations on business premises can be beneficial in many ways. You can use it as an incentive for employees and allow them to charge their vehicles during business hours. Another fitting use would be to bring in more profit by having citizens pay to use your charging stations.
Using an electric car is a greener alternative to gas-fueled cars. You can take your sustainability efforts a step further by charging your electric vehicle using solar power generated at your home or business. You can charge your vehicle using electricity generated from your home solar panels — forgoing the need to rely on a grid supply.
AJ Renewables provides a comprehensive installation service, including a design service that allows you to preview how the set-up will look once installed. We also offer a return on investment calculation to give you an idea of when you might start seeing those expected savings. These services are free of charge and provided so that you can make the most informed decision before investing in the installation of an EV home charger.
We are committed to providing high-quality products and a professional car charger installation performed to the highest standards. As a testament to this commitment, our standard installation process comes with insurance-backed warranties.
We supply and install premium charging products from MyEnergy, industry-leading EV charger suppliers.
The MyEnergy Zappi is a home electric car charger that can actually get you zero-rated VAT when paired with the accompanying battery storage system called Libbi. Zappi offers three EV home charging modes:
Eco charging: This offers a combination of green energy and grid electricity for your charging needs. It can help you cut back on charging costs by automatically charging during off-rate energy tariff periods.
Eco+ charging: Your charging is adjusted based on responses to power generation or energy usage. The system will pause your charging if there is an increase in power consumption and then resume it when surplus electricity is available.
Fast charging: This offers the maximum power when charging your electric vehicle.

You can choose between two types of home EV chargers. The main difference is the lack of a cable or the inclusion of one.
Tethered chargers have a cable permanently attached to the charging box, removing the need for unnecessary rummaging while searching for a separate cable. You can simply pull up to your charging pod, plug the cable into your car, and charge it.
A universal socket unit or an untethered cable requires you to insert your own charging cable into the charge box. These universal socket units are compatible with all plug-in electric vehicles as long as the correct cable is used.
With AJ Renewables, our standard installation package includes the supply of the most ideal product suited to your needs, a comprehensive design and quotation service, and a professional installation.
The cost of an electric vehicle charging station can be around £1,000. However, there are various factors that affect how much it will cost to have a home charging point installed. Usually, the cost depends on:
The type of product you choose — choosing a more expensive EV charging product will push up the overall costs
The installation team’s labour — more complex jobs will usually cost more
Additional labour — the additional labour and tools required may increase the cost
The best way to find out the exact costs involved and how much you’ll pay is to reach out to your local EV charger supplier — AJ Renewables. We work on a fixed price as provided in your quotation. If we arrive on-site and the job is more complicated than originally quoted, we may charge an additional cost — but not without discussing it with you first.
