Electric Vehicle charging points
Concerns about the environment and high oil prices mean millions of us are considering an electric vehicle. Of course, if you’re getting an electric vehicle (EV), you’ll need somewhere to charge it.
The solarCiti is authorised by the UK government’s Office for Zero Emission Vehicles to install EV charge points and infrastructure.
Grant funding may be available towards the cost of installing a charging point in your rental properties or at work and we can take care of the application process for you.

Are there different types of EV charging point?
There are three main types of EV charging point: rapid, fast and slow. They pretty much do exactly what they say on the tin.
Rapid or super chargers are mainly found at motorway services and other public locations where super-fast charging is necessary during a journey. A typical example is Tesla Super Charger, which takes just 20 minutes to charge the vehicle up to 80%.
Fast chargers are the standard for home and workplace charging and enable people to charge their vehicles within a few hours, depending on the vehicle and rating of the charging point. The most common fast charger we install is rated at 7kW, which will charge most vehicles from 0-100% within 6-12 hours.
Slow chargers (or trickle chargers) are generally only for emergency charging and can take 12-24 hours or more to charge the vehicle. They usually use a normal 13A plug socket and are not intended to be used day in and day out because they may overload the sockets in your house.
