In this blog:
- An EV adds a new component to your home’s overall energy consumption.
- How to manage charging your car to avoid energy bill blow-out worries (even though it’s still cheaper than buying petrol!).
- Ways to optimise your home-charging, from labour-intensive manual methods, to more intelligent technology.
- How to assess your home’s a unique energy profile (consumption and lifestyle patterns / possible solar production and use) and factoring in your charging and car use strategy
- If managed well, you can minimise the financial and environmental costs of charging your EV, thereby maximising your satisfaction in owning one 😊
