Rolec EVO 7.4kW Smart EV Charger – Optimised for UK Homes

The Rolec EVO 7.4kW Smart Charger is a feature-rich, solar-compatible home EV charger designed for smart tariff savings, long-term flexibility, and a hassle-free user experience. Whether you charge from the grid, tap into solar, or switch to off-peak tariffs like Octopus Go, this single-phase unit gives you total control via app, RFID or simple plug & go.

Built for British conditions and fully compliant with Smart Charge Point Regulations, the Rolec EVO is a compact, cost-effective solution for homeowners seeking future-ready charging without needing three-phase power.

Full App Control with Smart Tariff Scheduling

The Rolec EVO app gives you complete control over when and how your EV charges. Whether you're charging overnight on Octopus Go or setting a weekly schedule, the app makes it easy to tailor charging to your needs. Monitor usage, set user permissions, and manage multiple vehicles from one dashboard, all via Wi-Fi or Ethernet.

Prefer to keep things simple? Just plug in and the charger will auto-start using the last saved schedule or your chosen default mode. It also comes with RFID card access for shared driveways, flats, or visitor use.

Optimise Solar Charging with Eco & Eco+ Modes

If your home has solar panels, the EVO 7.4kW makes it easy to prioritise self-generated energy. Switch to Eco mode to blend grid and solar power for faster top-ups, or Eco+ mode to charge only when surplus solar is available, ideal for maximising returns and slashing running costs.

With solar compatibility built in, there’s no need for extra hardware or firmware upgrades. Just activate your preferred mode via the app, and let the charger do the rest.

Built-In Safety Features & Full UK Compliance

The Rolec EVO 7.4kW has been engineered with safety at its core. It includes all the protection features required for safe domestic EV charging and meets the latest UK Smart Charge Point Regulations.

  • 🔒 Integrated Type A 30mA & DC 6mA Protection: Covers both AC and DC fault currents without needing additional devices.
  • PME Fault Detection: No earth rod required – simplifies installation while maintaining safety.
  • 🔥 Fire & Tamper Resistant Casing: Built to withstand British weather and resist external damage.
  • 🌩️ Overtemperature & Surge Protection: Protects your EV and home from electrical spikes and overheating.

This charger is fully regulation-ready, offering peace of mind from install day onwards, whether you're self-installing via a certified electrician or working with a trusted installer from Evergy's network.

Compact, Easy to Install & Ready for British Homes

Designed with UK properties in mind, the Rolec EVO 7.4kW charger is compact enough for tight driveways, wall-mounted installs or inside garages. It includes a dynamic load balancing kit (CT clamp & cable) as standard, helping protect your home’s electrical system while charging.

  • 🧰 Includes Load Management Kit: Prevents overloading your home’s supply – no extras required.
  • 📦 Compact Size: Just 292mm (H) x 179mm (W) x 142mm (D) for a sleek, unobtrusive fit.
  • 🌧️ Weatherproof & Durable: IP54 rating and IK10 impact resistance for long-lasting outdoor use.

Whether your preferred mounting spot is exposed to the elements or tucked away in a garage, the EVO 7.4kW fits the job with minimal fuss and full protection.

Three Ways to Start Charging – No App Required

The Rolec EVO 7.4kW offers multiple access options to suit every household. Whether you prefer app control, RFID cards, or simple plug & go, the EVO adapts to your routine without locking you into one method.

  • 📱 Smartphone App: Full scheduling, access control, and monitoring via the free Rolec EV app.
  • 💳 RFID Authentication: Two RFID cards included for easy family or shared use.
  • 🔌 Plug & Go: Just connect your EV and walk away – the charger handles the rest.

The multi-mode access makes it ideal for households with multiple drivers or guests, without compromising on security or convenience.

Connectivity That Keeps You in Control

Unlike many chargers in its class, the Rolec EVO 7.4kW features built-in smart connectivity options for maximum flexibility and integration. Whether you’re monitoring usage, adjusting schedules, or linking to third-party platforms, the EVO has you covered.

  • 📶 Wi-Fi & Ethernet: Reliable internet connection for remote management and updates.
  • 📡 Bluetooth Setup: Quick installer configuration with no need for cables.
  • ⚙️ OCPP 1.6 Support: Open Charge Point Protocol enables integration with wider smart home systems and future grid services.

This level of smart connectivity is rare in domestic EV chargers and future-proofs your installation for upcoming energy innovations like vehicle-to-grid (V2G) and demand-side response schemes.
