What does a home EV charger cost in Australia in 2026?
Reviewed 22 October 2026. General information and illustrative estimates, not a quote. Installation costs vary with your switchboard, wiring and chosen charger.
Most Australian households pay somewhere between $1,200 and $2,600 for a 7 kW home charger supplied and installed. What you actually pay depends less on the charger brand and more on your switchboard, wiring distance and whether you have single or three-phase power.
We've published a full guide covering your three charging options, what pushes the price up or down, running costs on off-peak tariffs and solar, and the support available in 2026.

In short:
- A standard power point adds roughly 10–15 km of range per hour, free if you already have a suitable socket.
- A 7 kW wall charger adds 40–50 km per hour and fills most EVs overnight, the sweet spot for most homes.
- An 11–22 kW charger needs three-phase power and rarely makes sense for charging alone.
- Off-peak charging at around 14–20c/kWh means a 60 kWh battery fills overnight for roughly $9–$12.
