The myenergi Zappi is uniquely designed to work with solar panels. It detects when your solar system is generating surplus electricity and uses it to charge your EV — electricity that would otherwise be exported to the grid at 12–15p/kWh. For King's Lynn homeowners with a 4kW solar system, the Zappi can provide 800–1,500 kWh of free EV charging per year — worth £220–£420 at standard rates.

Solar-Powered EV Charging in King's Lynn
Pairing a solar panel system with your EV charger in King's Lynn means driving on free electricity. With 1,040 kWh/m² annual solar irradiance, King's Lynn generates enough surplus solar to cover 5,000–8,000 miles of EV driving per year at zero fuel cost. The myenergi Zappi is specifically designed to divert surplus solar power directly to your EV — no manual scheduling needed.
Battery + EV: Charge Overnight for 2p/mile
A home battery (Fox ESS 9.6kWh or Tesla Powerwall 3) paired with a smart tariff charges from the grid overnight at 7–15p/kWh, then feeds your EV charger during the day or early evening. This reduces EV charging costs to as little as 2p/mile — compared to 7p/mile at standard home rates or 15p/mile at public rapid chargers. For King's Lynn households driving 10,000 miles/year, that is a saving of up to £500–£1,000 annually versus petrol at current prices.
Grants Available in King's Lynn
Norfolk Warm Homes Partnership (King's Lynn & West Norfolk Borough Council). PE30–PE34 postcodes eligible. The Norfolk Warm Homes Local Grant funds heat pumps + insulation packages. Solar must be part of wider retrofit. West Norfolk also has strong Agricultural Solar support.
EV chargers qualify for 0% VAT when installed at the same time as a solar panel system. We assess all available grants during your free survey.
Free EV Charging Potential in King's Lynn
King's Lynn and the Fens receive 1,040+ kWh/m² solar irradiance. The coastal and fenland topography means flat horizons and maximum solar exposure — generating up to 15% more electricity per kWp than midland or northern sites. This high solar yield means more surplus electricity available for EV charging via a Zappi — King's Lynn homeowners with solar panels can expect 3,000-6,000 miles of free driving per year from solar alone.
