EV Charger Installation in St Austell
St Austell is rapidly adopting electric vehicles: the town has good EV infrastructure with public chargers at the White River retail park and St Austell railway station car park, and residential EV charger installations have accelerated significantly since 2022. CCS Heating & Renewables installs home EV chargers across St Austell and the wider PL25 area, fitting Zappi, Ohme, and Easee smart chargers that integrate with solar panels and smart tariffs. The Zappi charger is particularly popular with St Austell homeowners who already have or are considering solar panels — it automatically diverts surplus solar electricity to charge your car instead of exporting it to the grid for just a few pence per unit. Homes in the solar-active areas of Carlyon Bay, Duporth, and the new Trewhiddle estate are ideal candidates for a combined solar and EV charger installation. A 7kW home charger can fully charge a typical EV in 6–8 hours — far better than a standard 3-pin plug, which would take 24+ hours. CCS is based just 3 miles from St Austell, ensuring fast installation and aftercare.

"CCS installed our air source heat pump and the whole process was brilliant from start to finish. They handled the BUS grant application, and our heating bills have dropped significantly. The house is warmer than it ever was with our old oil boiler."
