Solar-surplus charging
If you have solar PV, a compatible charge point can prioritise surplus generation, so more of your own electricity goes into the car instead of being exported.

Charging at home, done properly
A home charge point should suit your supply, your parking and the way you drive. We help you work that out, then arrange installation with a suitable partner.
The basics
7.4 kW is the usual home option
Most UK homes have a single-phase electricity supply, and 7.4 kW is the typical charge-point rating for that supply. Where a property has a three-phase supply, higher-rated options may be possible — that is confirmed during the assessment.
Load balancing
Load balancing keeps total household demand within the limits of your supply, reducing charge rate when the rest of the home is drawing heavily.
Scheduled charging
Charging can be scheduled to run at chosen times, which matters if you are on a tariff with cheaper off-peak periods.
Compatibility assessment
Before anything is fitted, the installer checks your supply, earthing arrangement, consumer unit, cable route, mounting position and your vehicle's connector.
Grenie does not currently manufacture or sell its own charge point. Any charge point we discuss with you is a third-party product supplied and installed by a qualified installation partner, who is responsible for the electrical work, certification and warranties.
What a charge point can deliver depends on your supply capacity, the vehicle's on-board charger, cable runs and the charging schedule you choose. We will set out what is realistic for your property rather than quoting headline figures.
