ALPS Electrical is based in Kirklevington, just outside Yarm — making us the most genuinely local EV charger installer in the area. Yarm and Eaglescliffe have a high proportion of executive and larger family homes, most with garages or generous driveways — ideal conditions for a clean, neat installation. Many local homeowners choose the MyEnergi Zappi, which works intelligently with solar panels to charge from excess generation rather than the grid. We install smart chargers that integrate with Octopus Go, Octopus Intelligent and other cheap overnight tariffs for maximum savings.

The best EV charger depends on your priorities. The MyEnergi Zappi is ideal if you have solar panels as it can divert excess solar energy to your car. The Ohme Home Pro offers the best smart tariff integration for cheap overnight charging. The Tesla Wall Connector is the premium choice for Tesla owners. The Wallbox Pulsar Max offers excellent build quality and smart features. We can advise on the best charger for your specific setup.
Yes, and this is one of the most satisfying aspects of having both solar and an EV. A MyEnergi Zappi charger can automatically divert excess solar energy to your car, giving you genuinely free motoring. On a sunny day, a 4kW solar system can add 15-20 miles of range per hour of charging. Combined with battery storage, you can store daytime solar energy and charge your car overnight from the battery.
A tethered charger has the cable permanently attached (like a petrol pump), so you simply grab the cable and plug in. An untethered (socketed) charger requires you to use your own cable. Tethered is more convenient for home use. Most chargers are available in both options. The Zappi, Ohme Home Pro and Wallbox Pulsar Max are all available tethered.
