Many modern EV chargers (Hypervolt, Ohme, Zappi) support solar diversion or integration with your solar system via an app. A typical 4kW solar system generates enough surplus energy to add 15–25 miles of range per day in summer. Ask your installer about solar-compatible chargers and whether they can set up smart charging to prioritise solar energy.
