With zappi’s eco charge mode, you can have the best of both worlds – green energy and affordable charging. By using a combination of renewable energy and grid power, you can minimize your reliance on traditional energy sources while enjoying the cost savings of off-peak electricity rates.
But that’s not all – zappi’s eco mode is designed to intelligently adjust your charging power in real-time, responding to changes in generation or power usage in your home. And when your solar panels or wind turbines generate more power than you need, zappi will automatically divert the surplus energy to charge your car – giving you the ability to power up for free!
Even if your energy generation falls below the threshold, zappi will ensure that your car is charged and ready to go by drawing the necessary power from the grid. With zappi, you can take control of your charging experience, reduce your carbon footprint, and save money – all at the same time.
Take control of your electric car charging experience with eco+. This innovative charging mode is designed to minimise energy consumption and maximise cost savings. Like eco charging, eco+ can draw power from the grid or your own power source. But what sets it apart is its intelligent power management system that adjusts the charging power in real-time based on changes in energy generation or consumption in your home. With eco+, your electric car charging will automatically pause when there is too much imported power, and resume only when there is surplus free power available. Experience the ultimate in eco-friendly and cost-effective charging with eco+!
Get ready for a speedy and powerful charging experience with zappi’s fast mode. Whether you’re using renewable energy or power from the grid, your electric vehicle will be charged at maximum power.

Types of car charger explained
Type 1 electric car charging is a 5-pin design that comes with a tether to prevent it from being pulled out of the charging port. This type of charging point is the dominant variation in Asian, Japanese and American markets. It is less commonly seen in Ireland, UK and mainland Europe. Type 1 chargers only adds about 4 miles of Range Per Hour (RPH), depending on the car’s make and model. So it often referred to as slow or emergency charging in Ireland. A Type 1 charger is commonly misdescribed as the standard 3-pin sockets we have everywhere in Ireland, this is a 3-Pin charger, not a Type 1 electric car charger
The Type 2 car charger is typical of most chargers found in Ireland, UK and mainland Europe. Type 2 models are known as such for their 7-pin design don’t have these latches. Instead to hold them securely to the vehicles, they utilise a locking pin that locates and secures the plug in place. This type of charger will provide your electric car with about 25 miles of Range Per Hour (RPH), but can also offer different charging speeds for example eco or fast.

The cost of charging your EV varies depending on a number of factors. If using solar panels, you can charge you EV for free! However if you are paying for an EV charger at a service station for example, they will dictate their own rate depending on the fluctuating costs of energy at the time. At home, you can benefit from cheaper charging if plugging your electric car in at night compared with during the day, and you can also select different charging modes which will change the cost. You can find out more about this and base line calculations in our guide how much does it cost to charge an electric car?
Based on 54kWh, the average cost to fully charge an electric car from empty to full is around €9.10 whilst the average monthly cost to keep an EV charged would be around €36.00. This data is based on fully charging your EV once per week at home. Another advantage is that EV’s are also exempt from paying Road Tax and are significantly cheaper to maintain.

Vehicle range is the estimated distance that your vehicle can travel on a single charge. In terms of electric vehicles, this refers to the amount of charge left in the vehicle battery at any given time. This is often displayed on a vehicle dashboard as either a percentage or miles/KM remaining. A vehicle’s actual range depends on many fluctuating factors, such as the environment and your personal driving and charging habits.

There are two main types of EV charging station: fast charging for homes, and rapid charging for public chargers. Most home electric car chargers use AC charging: however when rapid charging is required – for instance, at motorway service stations – DC charging is typically used as it is quicker.
We are seeing a rapid increase in the number of charging stations at UK & Irish workplaces – particularly from companies that have electric fleets. Charging at work is becoming an increasingly popular facility – and many businesses are utilising the government’s Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS), which is a voucher-based option that provides financial incentives for installing EV chargers.
