Zappi EV Charger
Smart Solar EV Charging for Adelaide Homes
The Zappi EV Charger is designed for homeowners who want more than a basic wall charger. It can charge from the grid, your solar system, or a smart mix of both, helping you make better use of your own clean energy during the day and reduce your reliance on expensive grid power.
At Generate Energy, we help Adelaide homeowners install smart EV charging solutions that work properly with their home, solar system, switchboard, energy usage and future plans.
Whether you already own an EV, have one on order, or want your home ready for the next stage of electrification, Generate Energy can help you choose and install the right Zappi EV Charger setup for your property.

Why Choose a Zappi EV Charger?
Zappi is one of Australia’s most recognised solar-friendly EV chargers because it gives you more control over where your charging energy comes from. Instead of simply pulling power from the grid every time you plug in, Zappi can be configured to prioritise your surplus solar, use scheduled charging windows, or charge at full speed when you need the car ready quickly.
This makes it a strong option for Adelaide households with rooftop solar, battery storage, time-of-use electricity tariffs or plans to add solar later.
Key benefits of the Zappi EV Charger include:
- Smart charging using solar, grid power or a combination of both
- Solar surplus charging to help maximise your rooftop solar system
- ECO, ECO+ and FAST charging modes for different situations
- Options for single-phase and three-phase homes
- Tethered and untethered model options
- App control and monitoring through the myenergi ecosystem
- A cleaner, more convenient way to charge at home
- A strong fit for solar homes across Adelaide and South Australia

How Zappi Charging Modes Work
FAST Mode
FAST mode charges your EV at the maximum available rate for your setup. This is useful when you need your car charged quickly and are less concerned about whether the power is coming from solar or the grid.
ECO Mode
ECO mode blends available solar energy with grid power where needed. It is designed to reduce grid use while still keeping the car charging.
ECO+ Mode
ECO+ mode is ideal when you want to prioritise surplus solar as much as possible. Charging can pause and restart depending on how much excess solar is available, helping reduce unnecessary grid import.
For many Adelaide solar households, this is where Zappi becomes especially valuable. It gives you the flexibility to decide whether speed, savings or solar self-consumption matters most at that moment.
