MyEnergi Zappi Glo EV Charger - The Next Generation of Smart Home Charging
Introducing the MyEnergi Zappi Glo EV Charger for Solar-Powered Homes
The MyEnergi Zappi Glo EV charger is making waves in the UK’s renewable energy and electric vehicle landscape. As the latest flagship product from MyEnergi, a British leader in eco-smart home technology, the Zappi Glo is designed to seamlessly integrate with solar PV and battery storage systems. This next-generation charger empowers homeowners to maximise self-consumption of solar energy, reduce grid reliance, and charge their electric vehicles (EVs) in the greenest, most cost-effective way possible.
What sets the Zappi Glo apart is its ability to intelligently divert surplus solar generation directly into your EV, ensuring that every mile you drive is powered by the sun. With intuitive controls, real-time energy monitoring, and compatibility with all major EV brands, the Zappi Glo is a future-proof solution for sustainable transport and home energy management. Atlantic Renewables’ engineers are ready to help you unlock the full potential of your solar-powered EV charging setup.
How the Zappi Glo Maximises Solar Self-Consumption for EV Charging
One of the standout features of the Zappi Glo is its three distinct charging modes: ECO, ECO+ and FAST. These modes allow users to tailor their charging strategy based on solar availability, grid tariffs, and personal preferences. In ECO and ECO+ modes, the Zappi Glo automatically detects surplus solar energy and prioritises using it to charge your EV, only drawing from the grid when necessary. This ensures that you make the most of your solar investment and keep running costs to a minimum.
For homeowners with battery storage, the Zappi Glo can be configured to coordinate with your home battery, further optimising energy flows and minimising grid imports. The charger’s advanced monitoring capabilities provide real-time feedback on solar generation, battery status, and EV charging, all accessible via the MyEnergi app or the unit’s colour touchscreen. This level of integration is a game-changer for those seeking to achieve true energy independence.
If you want to maximise your solar self-consumption and reduce your carbon footprint, contact Atlantic Renewables for expert advice on integrating the Zappi Glo with your solar PV and battery systems.
What Makes the Zappi Glo Stand Out in the EV Charger Market
The Zappi Glo is more than just an EV charger—it’s a smart energy hub for the modern home. Key features include:
- Solar and wind compatibility: The Zappi Glo can work with both solar PV and small wind turbines, making it ideal for off-grid and hybrid setups.
- Load balancing: The charger intelligently manages household loads to prevent overloading your supply, a critical safety feature for busy homes.
- Remote control and scheduling: Through the MyEnergi app, users can schedule charging sessions to coincide with peak solar hours or off-peak grid tariffs, further reducing costs.
- OZEV-approved: The Zappi Glo is fully compliant with UK smart charger regulations and eligible for government grant schemes.
With its sleek design, robust build quality, and future-ready software, the Zappi Glo is a top choice for EV owners looking to embrace sustainable charging.
UK EV Charging Statistics Highlight Zappi Glo’s Impact
The UK now boasts over 1 million EVs on the road, with home charging accounting for more than 80% of all EV charging sessions. As solar adoption accelerates, the demand for smart chargers like the Zappi Glo is soaring. Recent studies show that integrating solar with EV charging can reduce annual vehicle running costs by up to 60% compared to grid-only charging.
The Zappi Glo’s ability to harness free, renewable energy for transport is a key driver behind its popularity among eco-conscious UK homeowners. Atlantic Renewables’ engineers specialise in designing integrated solar and EV charging solutions that deliver maximum savings and sustainability.
How to Install the Zappi Glo with Your Solar PV and Battery Storage
Installing the Zappi Glo is straightforward for qualified professionals, but it’s essential to ensure compatibility with your existing solar and battery systems. The charger can be wall-mounted indoors or outdoors, with weatherproofing to withstand the UK climate. Integration with solar PV requires a CT clamp to monitor energy flows, while battery storage integration may involve additional configuration for optimal performance.
Atlantic Renewables’ team of experts provides end-to-end installation services, from site assessment and system design to commissioning and aftercare. We ensure your Zappi Glo setup is fully optimised for your property’s unique energy profile.
