The leading solar charger

Kilometers of free driving

Our zappi lets you use any excess solar energy generated by your PV or wind systems to power up your electric car. That means you can enjoy some free kilometers courtesy of the sun!

zappi simply connects with your PV system and will take power from the panels or grid, depending on which setting you select.

Giving you more control

More choice. More control. Meet OCPP.

zappi is now OCPP supported as standard. This means you can connect to an OCPP compatible platform, which allows you to control and manage your charging experience.

What is OCPP

OCPP is a standardised form of communication for EV charging infrastructure, regardless of manufacturer. It was created to allow compatibility between EV chargers and management software to enable greater convenience and choice for consumers.

What are the benefits

OCPP offers 4 key benefits to zappi users, which differ slightly depending on whether you have a single zappi at home or use multiple zappis in a business setting.

Control

Control who can use your zappi via PIN code access.

Choose

Choose the default charging mode (Fast, Eco, Eco+) when they plug in.

Keep track

Keep track of who charged, when and how much — ideal for logging business mileage.

Connect

Connect to an OCPP compatible platform.

The next steps

Do I need to pay or upgrade?

OCPP is a free, open source protocol — you simply need to update the firmware on your zappi. This update is available to zappi with built in WiFi (v2.1).

Unsure how to update?

If you’ve never updated your zappi before and unsure how to, you can find plenty of guides on all our products in our Guides & Help section.

No solar? No problem

If you don’t have a solar panel system, zappi can still operate like an ordinary electric car charging point, importing from the grid.

You can always add a solar or wind system later!

zappi Tech Specs

 

3 modes of  home EV charging

 

This mode is a mixture of both green energy and energy imported from the grid. eco mode minimises the use of grid power and can charge using 100% green energy. The charging power is continuously adjusted in response to changes in generation or power being used elsewhere in the home.

If the surplus generation drops below 1.4kw some power will be drawn from the grid to top it back up.

 

Charge power is continuously adjusted in response to changes in generation or power consumption elsewhere in the home. Your electric car charging will pause if there is too much-imported power, continuing only when there is surplus free power available.

 

In this mode, the vehicle will be charged at maximum power. This power can come from a renewable energy source or simply from the grid. The cost of charging an electric car also depends on numerous factors including mode and the car itself.

If you don’t have solar panels or wind generation, zappi will charge just like an ordinary Mode 3 charging point.

 

Set timers

At certain hours of the day, energy rates are significantly cheaper. With zappi, you can use the ‘boost timer’ option to start charging at times with the lowest rates. It’s a cost-saving charging alarm clock for your EV!

PV charging

zappi works in harmony with your Solar PV or wind generation, meaning you can charge your car using green energy for free. If you haven’t got a renewable energy source at home, zappi works just like any other charger in ‘fast mode’.

Access

The myenergi app allows you to access and control your devices from anywhere in the world! Visual graphs allow you to monitor your import/export information all in one place.

Pincode protected

A 5 digit pin code is a security feature integrated into this smart electric car charging point, should you wish to use it. It prevents people from changing your settings or using your solar EV charger without permission or tampering.

Bigger, better and greener

All their packaging is recycled and is recyclable. They are trying to use as little plastic as they can. They are looking at every part of their business to make it bigger, better and greener and it’s very impressive.
