EV Charger Installation
Electric cars and trucks have taken the world by storm in the past few years. With the rise of electric vehicles (EVs), has come the need for electric vehicle charging to keep these electrified cars and trucks moving. If you own an EV, having a dedicated EV charger is a near-necessity. Being able to quickly and easily top up your car overnight means you can head out in the morning without a second thought (or a stop at the gas station).
Cromwell Solar specializes in high tech aspects of electrical services and, unlike most conventional electrical shops, we keep up to date on the latest developments in EV charging. Adding a home or commercial EV charger is straightforward, and we can pair the work with a solar panel installation, or simply add an EV charger to your existing network, no matter where your electricity comes from.
EV Chargers Power An Electrified World
In only a few years, the market for EVs has moved from niche to completely mainstream. These vehicles represent the future of transportation: major automakers are not spending research dollars on combustion engines any longer focusing instead on electric engines. Each year, sales for EVs are shattering previous records, and in 2023 EVs made up about 8% of all new cars/trucks sold in the US. With all these new EVs on the road, EV charging has become much more important, and the technology of chargers is rapidly evolving.

Cromwell Solar can help you determine what kind of charger you need for your electric car or truck. EV chargers are classified into different levels depending on how quickly they can deliver a charge to your vehicle. Level 1 EV chargers run on a home’s standard 120-volt outlets, and can take more than a full day to charge a vehicle. Level 2 EV chargers are connected to your 240-volt outlets, and can charge a typical electric vehicle overnight. We install Level 2 EV chargers in homes, and hard-wire them to your electric panel to seamlessly integrate the chargers to your home electric grid. Cromwell Solar also keeps up to date on the latest high-tech EV chargers available, and we offer the latest technology as it’s available.

Our smart home EV chargers offer control, flexibility, and convenience for your vehicles. You can control when the charge happens to take advantage of less expensive overnight power rates. Home EV chargers offer flexible amperage (power) output, allowing us to install multiple chargers on a single circuit and regulate the power to avoid overloading circuits and prevent more costly service upgrades. Home EV chargers can be installed wherever you want, and can be controlled easily from your smartphone, giving you the power to choose how and when charging takes places.
