Solar Electric Vehicle Charging
Charge Your Electric Vehicle Smarter with Solar Energy
Electric vehicle (EV) ownership is growing rapidly in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Chandler, and surrounding areas. But charging an EV with standard grid electricity can significantly increase your monthly energy costs. The best way to reduce this expense? Power your EV with solar energy.
Rather than simply installing an EV charger, I design holistic solar solutions that incorporate EV charging into your home’s overall energy production and consumption strategy. By optimizing system size, battery storage, and energy timing, I ensure your EV is charged with the cleanest, most cost-effective power available—without driving up your electric bill.
How To Best Use Solar to Charge Your EV
1. Reduce Charging Costs & Maximize Solar Savings
Charging an EV from the grid during peak hours can be expensive. By integrating an EV charger with your solar system, you can store energy when rates are low and use it when rates are highest—leading to significant savings.
2. Optimize Energy Use for Peak Efficiency
Utility companies like SRP and APS are shifting toward time-of-use rate plans, meaning the cost of electricity fluctuates throughout the day. A well-designed solar + battery storage system ensures you’re charging at the lowest possible cost.
3. Future-Proof Your Home for Energy Independence
As more homeowners adopt EVs, battery storage, and high-energy appliances, having a system that optimizes energy flow for multiple uses is essential. I design solar solutions that align EV charging, HVAC, pool heating, and whole-home energy needs into one efficient setup.
