Is SunWorks approved for the Jersey EV charger grant?
Yes. SunWorks states it is an approved installer under the Government of Jersey's EV Charger Incentive scheme, through which customers can receive £350 towards a qualifying charger installation.
What does charging from solar surplus actually mean?
The smart charger monitors how much solar you are generating beyond what the house is using, and automatically starts, adjusts and stops charging to soak up that surplus. As long as the car is plugged in, it charges on self-generated electricity rather than electricity you have paid for.
Does limited range make an EV impractical in Jersey?
SunWorks argues not, on the grounds that island journeys are short, so regular short top-ups at home cover normal driving. It notes public charging in Jersey and Guernsey is improving but still limited, which is why it treats a good home charger as essential for an EV owner.

Evolve runs the island's public charging network and its own home offer. SunWorks is the option when the point is to charge from your own rooftop generation.
