The First universal EV charger to maximise green energy
Dear electric vehicle owner, do you have solar panels or a wind turbine ?
If you do, then imagine driving your electric vehicle for FREE!
If not, you may be thinking of going green at some point in the future.
Either way, you can benefit from zappi
zappi – Works like any regular charging point but has special ECO charging modes which benefit homeowners with micro-generation systems like solar panels or a wind turbine. Meaning you could be cruising around in your electric car which was charged with free GREEN energy.
Our intelligent, slick looking zappi device will charge any electric vehicle with surplus power generated from your solar panels or wind turbine when you flick it into one of the ECO modes.
zappi can also be used as an ordinary charge point, otherwise known as an EVSE – Just use the FAST charge mode.
