GoodWe is launching a new solar powered electric vehicle (EV) battery charger into the UK market to help homeowners further extend their energy independence from the grid.

The new charger is designed to maximise self-consumption of electricity by providing a cost-efficient generating and charging solution compatible with all EV types.

The GoodWe EV charger is a single or three phase AC charger available in 7kW, 11kW and 22kW versions capable of delivering 7,000 watts, 11,000 watts and 22,000 watts of power. The unit is fully protected, including overvoltage and undervoltage protection, AC surge and overload protection.

The EV charger uses ‘smart charging management’ that enables the inverter to prioritise charging the EV’s battery to ensure the vehicle is charged quickly and easily.

It forms part of GoodWe’s EcoSmart Home solution that uses three key components – building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) panels, battery technology with EV chargers, and a smart energy management system – to build an intelligent power ecosystem designed to deliver all the electricity requirements for a household.
