myenergi zappi, installed by Geko

zappi is a home EV charger made by UK company myenergi. It can charge your car from surplus solar, from the grid, or a mix of both, and runs from the myenergi app.

Yes. In Eco+ mode zappi waits until your panels make enough spare power, then charges from that surplus. zappi needs around 1.4 kW to charge, so on dull days you can set how much grid power it may top up with.

Fast charges at full power whatever the solar is doing. Eco charges continuously, following your surplus solar and topping up from the grid to keep the minimum rate. Eco+ only charges when there is enough surplus solar.

Up to 7 kW on a single-phase supply, which most homes have. On a three-phase supply the 22 kW model charges faster, if your car can take it.

Yes. zappi works with Intelligent Octopus Go, so Octopus can schedule your charging in its cheap-rate slots. Our solar tariff guide compares Intelligent Octopus Go, Flux and E.ON Next Drive.

Usually not. zappi has built-in PEN fault protection, so most installs don't need an earth rod. We confirm this at survey.

Yes. We set up zappi and your battery together so the battery doesn't empty into the car unless you want it to. We fit Tesla Powerwall 3, Fox ESS, Sigenergy and EcoFlow PowerOcean.

The government's EV chargepoint grant offers up to £500 to renters and flat owners with off-street parking. Most homeowners in houses no longer qualify. As an OZEV-authorised installer, we check whether you qualify and help with the application.

A zappi is from £1,150 installed. The price depends on your consumer unit, the cable run and whether you choose a tethered or untethered charger. You get one total price in writing after a free video consultation.

myenergi gives zappi a 3-year warranty, which can be extended to 5 years. Our work carries a 6-year IAA insurance-backed guarantee.
