EV Charger Installation in Hobart

More drivers across Hobart and Southern Tasmania are switching to electric every year, swapping the bowser for the wall socket, and tapping into Tasmania’s mostly renewable grid. A dedicated home charger turns that switch into a proper everyday upgrade with faster top-ups, safer wiring, and the freedom to skip the queue at public chargers around the CBD and Sandy Bay.

Expert Energy Tasmania installs smart EV chargers right across Hobart and Tasmania, helping local households charge their electric vehicles overnight while keeping more money in their pockets each month.

Brilliant experience from quote through to installation. We found the team to be honest and transparent in their assessment of our solar production capacity (and limitations), and their professionalism and communication throughout the whole process was excellent. The guys who did the installation were easy to deal with and hard working, and the office staff were always very responsive. Highly recommend.

Expert Energy Tasmania Pty Ltd have been fantastic! The sales team have been faultless throughout my dealings with them, but unbelievably, have been outshone by the installation crew! They arrived at our property , not far from Launceston airport, and were working before 0800. 32 panels fitted on two separate buildings, with batteries and inverters, associated cables, 2 power panels modifications, system testing and commissioning and a spotlessly clean site later, the teams were on their way back to Hobart at around 1500!! They were all magnificent!

Excellent service from initial consultation to commissioning of the system. Had a full solar/ battery system installed. Of the three companies I contacted, these guys responded within 12hrs, the others took 7 and 10 days. Expert Electrical were the only ones to do a site visit and discuss what I wanted and what they thought would be best to achieve that. Communication was excellent with them keeping me informed every step of the way. The techs were great and very considerate of us while they worked on the install. They cleaned up after themselves reasonably well (afterall they are electricians and have never seen a broom 😂). I can highly recommend these guys for all things solar.

I recently chose Expert Energy Tasmania to install a solar and battery system at my home in Alonnah, Bruny Island, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. Max took the time to understand my requirements, wasn’t pushy, and offered a very competitive price on both the solar system and a Tesla Powerwall 3. Other providers clearly added a hefty “Bruny tax”, but Expert Energy Tasmania priced the job fairly and transparently. On installation day, the technicians arrived on time, confirmed all placement details with me, and got straight to work. As a retired electrician with extensive experience in installation and project management, I pay close attention to workmanship — and this crew impressed me. They worked efficiently as a team, knew exactly what they were doing, and maintained a high standard throughout. Cable runs, conduits, terminations, and overall presentation were all completed to an exceptional standard, followed by a thorough clean‑up. The handover was clear and professional, and the system has been performing flawlessly since installation. I highly recommend Expert Energy Tasmania for solar, battery, and electrical work. Their professionalism, workmanship, and customer service are first‑class. Jon Newell

What is a Home EV Charger and Why Should You Consider EV Charger Installation?​

A regular powerpoint will technically charge an EV, but it does the job slowly and isn’t built for the kind of sustained load an electric car pulls overnight. A wall-mounted charger fitted by a licensed Tasmanian electrician hardwires straight into your switchboard and pushes power to your car several times faster, without stressing your home wiring. EV charger installation involves assessing your home’s electrical capacity, upgrading the switchboard if needed, mounting the charger unit, and configuring it for safe, compliant operation. The result is a charging setup that’s faster, safer, and purpose-built for daily use.

Faster charging

An EV wall charger powers your car several times faster than a wall socket, so you’re back across the Tasman Bridge before the morning traffic builds.

Convenience

Plug in once you’re home from the city, charge while you sleep, and skip the hunt for a free bay at Salamanca or the Glenorchy public chargers.

Lower running costs

Home charging is typically far cheaper than public charging stations, especially when combined with off-peak electricity rates or solar energy.

Solar integration

Smart chargers can prioritise solar energy for EV charging, reducing grid electricity use and lowering your overall energy costs.

Why Install a Home EV Charger?​

Public charging networks across Tasmania are growing, but they still come with patchy availability, premium per-kWh pricing, and the hassle of building your week around someone else’s bay. A home EV charger installation takes all of that off the table.

You pull into the driveway, plug in, and wake up to a full battery. For households running rooftop solar, the math gets even better, because your car runs on energy your own roof made earlier in the day. That means daily commutes from Howrah, Kingston, or Bellerive cost next to nothing.

Professional installation also keeps everything compliant with Australian electrical safety standards, with proper load management so your switchboard isn’t pushed past what it was built for.

Get More From Your Solar Panels with an EV Charger Home Installation​

Hobart’s solar uptake has climbed steadily over the past decade, and pairing panels with an EV is one of the smartest ways to make a rooftop system pay for itself faster. When your charger talks to your solar inverter, your car effectively becomes a rolling battery for the energy your house generates each day.

Smart EV chargers let you draw directly from solar, lift your self-consumption, cut what you import from the grid, and bring your overall EV charging costs right down. For plenty of Hobart households, that means daily driving across Greater Hobart is powered almost entirely by their own roof.

Higher-end chargers built for solar and battery setups can offer solar surplus charging, dynamic load balancing, app-based monitoring, scheduled off-peak top-ups, and full smart home integration. The end result is a tightly connected home where your hot water, heating, lights, and car all run on the same clean Tasmanian electricity.
