Solar Charge Port

Solar to charge your electric car

If being responsible by investing in a green technology vehicle wasn’t enough, now you can be even greener when you charge it! By placing a solar charge port in your home you accomplish 2 smart objectives. A SavWatt Eco-Port makes your green car even greener and saves you money at home. SavWatt Eco-Ports are simple low cost/high return solar power stations. They are quick to install, and work with all major vehicle models right out of the box.

A SavWatt Eco-Port is more than just a vehicle charge station

Solar provides the energy you need to tool around town. Don’t drive that eco car too much? That extra energy not being used by your solar charge station can be used by your home or as a backup energy source in the event of power outages. Use the excess power just like you would any standard utility outlet. Use the outdoor outlets on your charge port to plug in lights, outdoor tools when in use, area lighting, your garage doors during power outages, and even lights during the holidays.

How easy can it be?

The station framing installs in minutes and mounts to any flat surface or can be cemented in place for permanent installation.

Solar panels along the top of the assembly, that also provides outdoor shade for your new shiny green machine power the charge station ports.

You simply plug your car when not in use. A standard electric vehicle will get a full charge in approximately 6 hours of sunlight.

That excess power when not in use can be plugged directly into your home with a small grid tie inverter. Power not used by your car will be absorbed into your home, power not used by your car or home will be used to credit your utility bill where service is available.

Excess power can also be stored in batteries with a simple controller add on module for use on demand when needed.

That’s Smart Power!

Not only is a SavWatt Eco-Port smart there are incentives that make it even smarter. By utilizing the excess solar power into your home you qualify for federal and state incentives. This makes being greener an even smarter decision!

How much does a smart SavWatt Eco-Port cost?

SavWatt Eco-Ports cost between $6,000 and $22,000 for residential installation based on solar power objectives and the configuration of your new Solar system.
