Charge Smarter. Stop Relying on Public Stations.

SRS provides professional EV charger installation across Sydney with fixed pricing and same-day scheduling.

A dedicated Level 2 home EV charger delivers up to 22kW of charging power — meaning most EVs go from flat to full overnight. No more queuing at shopping centre charging stations. No more range anxiety before a Monday morning commute.

SRS installs wall-mounted smart chargers that integrate with your home energy system, support time-of-use tariff scheduling, and connect to your phone via app. You can check charge status, set timers, and track energy usage from anywhere.

There is no NSW Government rebate for installing a home EV charger, and the EV Ready Buildings grant for apartment blocks closed to new applications in December 2023. The approval side is easier than most people think: under NSW strata law an EV charger is sustainability infrastructure, so it passes unless more than half the votes cast are against it, not the 75% special resolution that once applied, and since 1 July 2025 by-laws that block a charger on appearance grounds are banned unless the building is heritage-listed. A few councils also run small rebates; Randwick offers 25% back, up to $250 for households and $5,000 for apartment blocks. We tell you what applies to your property before you commit.

Owner survey

Nine in ten Australian EV owners can charge at home, and most do

Source: Electric Vehicle Council with the University of Sydney, EV Ownership Survey 2025 (2nd edition, March 2026), 1,800+ owners.

Most Australian EV owners charge at home, and for most of them that is all they need. The average driver covers about 33 km a day, according to energy.gov.au. A standard power point delivers at most 2.4 kW, while a dedicated wall charger adds 30 to 80 km of range per hour, so a normal day’s driving is replaced in around an hour or less. That is why home EV charger installation in Sydney is usually the first job a new owner books, and why charging at home costs less than public charging for day-to-day use.

What moves the price

Installation and the charger are quoted separately. Here is what each part of EV charger installation in Sydney typically costs, and what pushes a job to the top of the range.

Installation (single-phase, ≤25 m run)$699–$1,499
Charger hardware$600–$1,400
Three-phase / switchboard upgrade / strataQuoted after free site assessment

All prices inc. GST. You receive a fixed written quote before any work starts. Pricing updated September 2026.

What pushes a job to the top of the range

  • Cable run length — Up to 25 m from switchboard to bay is included. Longer runs, conduit or trenching add to the price.
  • Switchboard capacity — Older boards may need RCD protection, a spare way or a full upgrade before a charger can be added.
  • Single vs three-phase — Three-phase unlocks 11–22 kW charging but needs a three-phase supply and a matching charger.
  • Charger choice — Hardware is $600–$1,400 depending on brand, power rating and solar or smart features.
Your daily drive, recharged overnight
33 km
is the average Australian driver's day (energy.gov.au)

On a 7 kW home charger that is about an hour of charging, so most Sydney households never need a public charger for the commute. We check your switchboard, cable run and parking bay in a free 30-minute site assessment and hand you a fixed written quote the same day.

CHARGER SPEED

Which EV charger speed does your home actually need?

Faster is not always better. The right charger matches your supply, your car’s onboard charger and how far you drive each day.

Home EV charger options compared: power, supply type, approximate range added per hour, typical fit
ChargerSupplyRange added per hour*Best forSwitchboard needs
7 kW (7.4 kW)Single-phaseAbout 40–50 kmMost Sydney houses; overnight charging covers typical daily drivingSingle-phase supply, a spare circuit on the board and RCD protection
11 kWThree-phaseAbout 60–70 kmThree-phase homes and higher-mileage drivers; the most many EVs accept on ACThree-phase supply with spare board capacity; upgrade quoted if needed
22 kWThree-phaseUp to about 120 km (car-limited)Two-EV households, or cars that can actually take 22 kWThree-phase supply with ample spare capacity; assessed on site
Standard power point (2.4 kW)Single-phaseAbout 10–15 kmOccasional top-ups only; not a daily charging solutionExisting circuit; no installation, but up to 24 hours for a full charge

*Approximate — depends on your car's onboard charger and efficiency. Many EVs accept a maximum of 11 kW AC; the Tesla Wall Connector tops out at 11 kW in Australia, so 22 kW means Wallbox or Schneider. Sources: energy.gov.au (30–80 km per hour, 3–10× a power point) and Evnex.

Start with your supply. Most Sydney houses are single-phase, which caps a home charger at 7.4 kW; that still replaces a typical day’s driving in under an hour and tops up most cars overnight. If your home already has three-phase, 11 kW is the sweet spot because it matches the maximum onboard charger in many EVs. Paying for 22 kW only makes sense if your car can use it or you plan to charge two vehicles. Our single-phase vs three-phase EV charging guide shows how to tell which supply you have.

The cable that comes with the car, often called a granny charger, plugs into a standard power point and is fine as a backup, but at 2.4 kW it is slow and not designed for daily use. A wall-mounted charger is the proper fix; our granny charger vs wall charger comparison explains the difference. Between wall chargers, the main decision is smart or basic: a smart EV charger can schedule around off-peak rates and solar, while a basic unit simply charges when plugged in.

SOLAR & SMART CHARGING

Solar EV charging: power your car from your own roof

80% of EV owners who can charge at home have solar, and 83% of owners want to manage their own charging around off-peak or solar rates (EVC Ownership Survey 2025).

Solar + EV

Charge on excess solar, not the grid

If you already have panels, a solar-aware charger such as the Zappi or Fronius Wattpilot can divert excess generation into the car instead of exporting it for a small feed-in credit. A good share of your driving is then powered by your own roof during the day, and the grid only tops up what solar could not cover. We install the charger and the current sensor or inverter link it needs to read your generation, then set the modes up with you. Read our guide to pairing solar with an EV charger for what to expect.

Smart charging

App scheduling, off-peak rates and OCPP

A smart EV charger connects to your Wi-Fi or a mobile network so you can schedule charging for off-peak hours, cap how much power it draws and track how much energy each session used. Look for OCPP support, the open standard that lets the charger talk to different management platforms, so you are not locked into one app if the maker stops supporting it. We will tell you which of the brands we install support it. Our comparison of smart and basic EV chargers sets out when the extra cost is worth it.

Looking ahead

Bidirectional charging: car as home battery

Vehicle-to-home (V2H) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) let a compatible EV send power back into your house or the grid, effectively turning the car into a large home battery. It is still emerging in Australia and needs a car that supports bidirectional charging plus a specific bidirectional charger, so most owners cannot use it yet. What you can do now is avoid blocking it: run conduit with spare capacity and keep room on the switchboard. Our bidirectional charging explainer covers where things stand.

Whether you charge from solar, off-peak or both, the economics favour home. According to energy.gov.au, it generally costs more to charge an EV at a public charging station than at home, and 92% of owners who charge at home say it meets their needs. Our home vs public EV charging cost comparison sets out how the two stack up.

NSW RULES & REBATES · CHECKED SEP 2026

NSW EV charger rules and rebates: what actually applies right now

Much of what is written online about EV charger rebates is out of date. Here is the current position for EV charger installation in NSW, with sources.

Grants

The EV Ready Buildings grant is closed

The NSW Government's Electric Vehicle Ready Buildings grant, which helped apartment buildings fund shared charging infrastructure, closed to new applications on 15 December 2023. There is no NSW rebate for installing a charger at a house, and the NSW EV purchase rebate has ended. Any quote or web page that still promises a NSW Government rebate towards a home charger is out of date.

Strata

No 75% vote, and no refusing on looks

Under the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015, EV charging is sustainability infrastructure. It is approved by a sustainability infrastructure resolution, which passes unless more than 50% of the value of votes cast are against it, a lower bar than the 75% special resolution and a rule in place since 2021. Since 1 July 2025, by-laws that block EV charging or solar on appearance grounds are banned as well, unless the building is heritage-listed or in a heritage conservation area. Together those remove the two biggest hurdles apartment owners used to hit.

Compliance

A licensed electrician and a CCEW, every job

Choose an EV charger installer in Sydney who is a licensed electrician: energy.gov.au is clear that a home charger must be installed by one, and it may need switchboard or supply work first. Every SRS installation is done to AS/NZS 3000 and finishes with a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW), the document your insurer, strata manager or a future buyer will ask for. Landlords and tenants have their own questions about who pays and who approves; our rental guide covers them.

Council rebates

Some councils still help

Randwick City Council runs a sustainability rebate of 25% of the cost, up to $250 for households and up to $5,000 for apartment blocks installing EV chargers. The property must be in the Randwick LGA and the work must be done by a licensed electrician. Other councils occasionally run programs and the terms change, so ask at the site assessment and we will check what is open for your address.

STRATA & APARTMENTS

EV chargers in Sydney apartments: how strata approval works now

A strata EV charger no longer needs a 75% vote, and since July 2025 it cannot be refused on looks alone. Here is how we run the approval.

01

Proposal and load study

We visit the building, check the main switchboard and the distribution boards serving the car park, and measure spare capacity. You get a short written proposal the committee can table: what goes where, how the power is shared and metered, and what it costs. That is the document the meeting votes on.

02

Owners corporation vote

The proposal goes to a general meeting. Because EV charging is sustainability infrastructure under NSW strata law, it passes unless more than half the votes cast are against it, not the old 75% special resolution. Since 1 July 2025, by-laws that refuse chargers on appearance grounds are banned outside heritage buildings, so the vote turns on the practical questions: capacity, cost and who pays. The meeting usually also adopts a by-law setting out who owns, maintains and pays for the equipment.

03

Install with load management

We install the charger or chargers with dynamic load management so they only draw what the building has spare, and sub-metering so each owner pays for their own electricity. Work is done to AS/NZS 3000, a CCEW is issued for the scheme's records, and cabling is sized for the bays that will follow.

Strata car park EV charger installation Bondi Junction
Strata car park, Bondi Junction — OCPP chargers with sub-metering so each owner pays for their own charging.

Most Sydney apartment owners start with a charger on their own bay, paid for by the owner and connected to their own meter, with a by-law recording that they own and maintain it. The alternative is common-property charging: a shared system on a few designated bays that any resident can use, funded by the owners corporation and billed per session. Both go to the owners corporation under the same sustainability infrastructure rules. Which suits your block depends on how many owners want to charge, where the bays sit relative to the boards, and how the scheme wants to handle billing. Our guide to how strata EV charging approval works in NSW goes through the options.

For larger schemes, buildings with a waiting list of EV owners, or mixed-use sites with commercial tenants, it is usually cheaper to build a backbone once than to run single cables bay by bay. A shared head-end, load-managed circuits along the car park and OCPP-compatible chargers let you add bays as demand grows. Our page on car park EV charger installation for strata and commercial sites explains how a staged rollout is costed.

What the committee will ask for

  • A load study showing the building’s spare capacity and how charging will be managed
  • A drawing of the cable route, charger position and any penetrations of common property
  • Who pays for installation, electricity, maintenance and eventual removal
  • Evidence the installer is a licensed electrical contractor with public liability cover
  • A draft by-law covering ownership, access and maintenance of the charger

IS YOUR HOME EV-READY?

Is your home ready for an EV charger? Six things we check

These are the six checks we run at the free site assessment before we fix a price for EV charger installation at your Sydney home.

1Does your switchboard have space and RCD protection?

A dedicated EV circuit needs its own protected way on the board. Many older Sydney homes have a full board, ceramic fuses or no RCD on the relevant circuits, and that has to be fixed before a charger can go in. We check this first because a switchboard upgrade before EV charger installation is the single biggest variable in the quote.

2Is your supply single-phase or three-phase?

Single-phase supports up to a 7.4 kW charger; a three-phase EV charger runs at 11 kW or 22 kW. Most Sydney houses are single-phase and that is enough for everyday driving. If you want faster charging, converting to three-phase involves your electricity distributor as well as the switchboard, so we quote it separately. Our single-phase or three-phase explainer shows how to check what you have.

3How far is the switchboard from where the car parks?

Up to 25 metres of cable run is included in our standard price. Beyond that, or where the route needs conduit across a driveway, through a slab or along a long fence line, the extra cable and labour are quoted. Measuring this accurately at the assessment is how we avoid surprises on the day. See the 2026 EV charger installation cost guide for worked examples.

4Do you have off-street parking and a sensible mounting spot?

The charger needs a wall or post within cable reach of the car's charge port, and the car needs to park in the same spot reliably. A garage or carport is ideal; an open driveway works with a weather-rated unit. We also check the tethered cable can reach either side of the car. Running a cable across a public footpath to a kerbside park is not an option.

5Is there Wi-Fi or mobile signal where the charger will go?

A smart charger needs a connection to schedule charging, apply solar modes and report energy use. Garages and basement car parks often have weak Wi-Fi, so we test the signal at the mounting point and suggest a Wi-Fi range extender or an alternative mounting point if needed. Our smart vs basic home charger guide explains what you lose without a connection.

6Do you have solar or a battery now, or plan to add one?

If you have panels, we recommend a charger that can follow your solar output so the car charges on excess generation. If solar or a home battery is on the cards later, we position the charger and cabling so the sensors and inverter link can be added without rework. Read the solar EV charging guide before you choose a unit.

INDUSTRY NEWS & UPDATES

What has changed for Sydney EV owners

Dated and sourced from the Electric Vehicle Council and the NSW Government. Last checked 12 September 2026.

  1. September 2026

    Battery EVs hit 24.9% of new car sales in August 2026

    The Electric Vehicle Council reported on 3 September 2026 that battery electric vehicles took a record 24.9% of Australian new vehicle sales in August, with BEVs and plug-in hybrids together at 36%. The Tesla Model Y was the country's best-selling vehicle for the month with 6,414 sales. More EVs on Sydney streets means more homes needing a charger. Home EV charger installation →

  2. March 2026

    Owner survey: 93% of Australian EV owners can charge at home

    The second EV Ownership Survey from the Electric Vehicle Council and the University of Sydney, covering more than 1,800 owners, found 93% can charge at home, 92% of those say it meets their needs, and 80% of home-charging households have solar. Only 23% of owners who drive to work can charge there. See the numbers →

  3. July 2025

    NSW strata reform: by-laws blocking EV chargers on appearance grounds banned

    From 1 July 2025, NSW strata by-laws that ban sustainability infrastructure, including EV chargers and solar, because of how it looks are banned unless the building is heritage-listed or in a heritage conservation area. The vote itself was already a low bar: a sustainability infrastructure resolution passes unless more than half the votes cast are against it. Strata EV charging rules →

  4. January 2025

    New Vehicle Efficiency Standard takes effect in Australia

    The New Vehicle Efficiency Standard commenced on 1 January 2025, with units and penalties for manufacturers applying from 1 July 2025. The standard pushes carmakers to bring lower-emission vehicles to Australia, and more EV models are expected on the local market as a result.

  5. December 2023

    NSW EV Ready Buildings grant closed to new applications

    The NSW Government's Electric Vehicle Ready Buildings grant, which co-funded charging infrastructure in apartment buildings, closed to new applications on 15 December 2023. There is currently no NSW Government rebate for a home or strata charger; the council rebate we can confirm is Randwick's. Current NSW rules →

Frequently Asked Questions

Standard residential EV charger installation in Sydney runs $699 to $1,499 inc. GST for the installation itself, with the charger quoted separately (typically $600–$1,400 depending on brand). That covers up to a 25 m cable run from the switchboard, a Certificate of Compliance (CCEW), commissioning and warranty. Three-phase, strata and jobs needing a switchboard upgrade are quoted after a free site assessment. We provide a fixed-price written quote before any work begins — no hidden extras.
Yes. In NSW, all EV charger installations must be carried out by a licensed Level 2 electrician and a Certificate of Electrical Compliance (CoC) must be issued on completion. SRS Services holds all required NSW Fair Trading licences and issues a CoC with every installation.
Not always. Many homes in Sydney have sufficient switchboard capacity for a Level 2 charger. During our free site assessment, we check your existing capacity and let you know upfront if an upgrade is needed. If it is, we provide a combined quote covering both the upgrade and the charger installation.
Most residential EV charger installations are completed in 2–4 hours. Jobs requiring a switchboard upgrade typically take 4–6 hours. Commercial or multi-bay installations vary depending on scope — we’ll give you a clear timeline during the quoting stage.
We install and service all major brands sold in Australia including Evnex, Zappi (myenergi), Tesla Wall Connector, Wallbox Pulsar Plus, Fronius Wattpilot, Schneider EVlink/Clipsal, ChargePoint Home Flex, Autel MaxiCharger, ABB Terra, and Webasto. We’ll recommend the right model for your home, car, and usage patterns.
Yes, but it requires body corporate approval and specific infrastructure planning. SRS has experience navigating strata approvals and can install sub-metered individual charging points in designated car spaces. We can also design shared infrastructure plans for buildings wanting to offer charging across multiple spaces.
No. There is no NSW rebate for installing a home EV charger, the EV Ready Buildings grant for apartment buildings closed to new applications in December 2023, and the NSW EV purchase rebate has ended. The good news is on the approval side: under the Strata Schemes Management Act, installing a charger in an apartment building is sustainability infrastructure, approved by a resolution that passes unless more than half the votes cast are against it, rather than the 75% special resolution. Since 1 July 2025, by-laws that refuse a charger on appearance grounds are also banned unless the building is heritage-listed or in a heritage conservation area. Randwick City Council also runs a sustainability rebate of 25% of the cost, up to $250 for households and up to $5,000 for apartment blocks, for properties in the Randwick LGA using a licensed electrician.

Most modern Sydney homes can accommodate a Level 2 EV charger with little or no modification. Key factors are: available capacity in your switchboard (usually 3-phase is easiest but single-phase works too), cable distance from your board to your parking area, and whether you have a suitable outdoor or garage location. Our free site assessment answers all of this in under 30 minutes.
Single-phase charging (7kW) is the most common home setup and adds roughly 40–50km of range per hour of charging — enough for most overnight home charging. Three-phase charging (11–22kW) adds 80–130km per hour and suits larger vehicles, higher daily mileage, or homes already wired for 3-phase. SRS installs both — we’ll recommend the right option after seeing your home.
Yes. SRS Services covers all of Greater Sydney including the CBD, Eastern Suburbs, North Shore, Inner West, Western Sydney, Hills District, South West, and Sutherland Shire. If you’re outside Sydney metro, contact us — we may still be able to help depending on location.
Yes. We design and install commercial EV charging in Sydney car parks, strata garages, workplace bays and fleet depots. Larger sites usually need dynamic load management so the chargers share the building’s spare capacity instead of forcing a supply upgrade, OCPP-compatible hardware so you can change billing or management platforms later, and sub-metering so each bay’s electricity is billed to the right person. We start with a site assessment and load study, then quote the head-end, cabling and the first bays, with conduit sized for the bays you will add later.
There is no single best charger; the right one depends on your supply, your car and whether you have solar. We install Evnex, Zappi, Wallbox, Tesla Wall Connector, Fronius and Schneider units, so we are not tied to one brand. Zappi and Fronius suit solar households that want to charge on excess generation. The Tesla Wall Connector tops out at 11 kW in Australia, which is plenty for overnight charging. If you have three-phase and want the full 22 kW, that points to Wallbox or Schneider. Our guide to the best home EV chargers in Australia compares them in detail.
Our EV charger installation service covers Greater Sydney: Western Sydney, the Hills District, the North Shore, the Eastern Suburbs, the Inner West and the Sutherland Shire, plus the suburbs in between. For homes, that metro footprint is where we work. For commercial and fleet projects in regional NSW, we can sometimes help by arrangement; send the site details through the enquiry form and we will confirm before quoting.
