Premium DLB-ready upgrade

myenergi Zappi GLO

myenergi's 2026 Zappi, rebuilt slimmer and screenless. It keeps what the Zappi is known for — diverting surplus solar into the car rather than exporting it — in a narrower housing that fits where the older unit would not.

All-in: the charger, standard Safe Electric installation, commissioning, certification support and your SEAI grant paperwork.

myenergi Zappi GLO 7 kW tethered EV charger, black, with its Type 2 cable coiled below the unit.

Who it suits

Homes with solar PV or a battery, where charging on your own generation is the point.

What stands out

  • Diverts surplus solar into the car instead of exporting it
  • Works with home battery storage and the wider myenergi range
  • Noticeably slimmer than the previous Zappi at 170 mm wide
  • RFID access for up to 126 cards

Worth knowing

The trade-offs, so there are no surprises on installation day.

  • No screen on the unit — status and control are in the app
  • The simplified smart-charging mode replaces the older ECO and ECO+ modes

Load balancing and solar

Two things people mix up, so worth separating. Load balancing stops the charger overloading your house. Solar diversion is about charging on electricity you have generated yourself. They use similar hardware, but they are not the same feature.

Dynamic load balancing — DLB package planned

Dynamic load balancing is fitted as standard with the myenergi monitoring accessory, and the same sensors let the charger divert surplus solar into your car.

It works using CT clamps — current sensors that clip around your incoming supply cable and measure what the whole house is drawing. If the shower and the oven come on mid-charge, the charger eases off so the main fuse never trips, then ramps back up. Without it, the safe alternative is permanently limiting the charger to a lower current.

On this unit that uses the myenergi monitoring accessory, included in the installed price.

With home solarDiverts surplus

This is the Zappi's whole point. Instead of exporting surplus generation for a low rate, it pushes it into the car, ramping up and down as clouds pass. If you have panels or a battery and want to charge on your own electricity, this is the unit to pick.

The myenergi monitoring accessory, which is part of the installed package.

Either way, exporting surplus earns you the feed-in rate while using it yourself offsets the full unit rate — which is why diversion pays on a sunny afternoon. How solar and load balancing work.

What's included — end to end

One Standard Installation price (€1,499) covers everything from the SEAI grant application through to post-install certification and aftercare. You deal with one team, and we guide you through the final SEAI declaration after installation.

SEAI grant — end to end

We submit your SEAI application, monitor the Letter of Offer, manage the 6-month deadline, and guide you through the final declaration after installation.

Safe Electric installation

A Safe Electric registered electrician installs your charger to current I.S. 10101 wiring rules, with appropriate protection, isolation, earthing, and bonding checks.

Up to code, every time

If your existing electrics need bringing up to standard for an EV circuit (earthing/open-PEN arrangement, gas/water bonding, fuseboard), we identify it during the photo review — never on install day.

Certification on completion

You receive Safe Electric completion certification after installation — required by SEAI, by your insurer, and good for resale.

Standard pricing covers everything

Charger, install, all materials, grant paperwork, and certification — €1,499 all-in. Net cost €1,199 after the €300 SEAI refund.

Aftercare + warranty cover

2-year workmanship warranty plus a 3-year manufacturer warranty on the charger unit — and you only ever deal with one team.

What if my home needs more than Standard?

Some Irish homes need additional work before a charger can go in safely — an older fuseboard, unclear earthing or gas/water bonding, an indoor or prepay meter, or ESB Networks having to confirm capacity. In those cases:

  • A Safe Electric electrician inspects on a low-cost pre-approval visit and quotes the extras transparently — before you commit to anything.
  • Pricing for any extras follows the Safe Electric electrician's specification and is quoted before you book.
  • We still handle the SEAI grant end-to-end — eligibility check, application, declaration, refund.
  • Your home is brought up to code as part of the work and you get the same Safe Electric certification on completion.

No surprises on install day. Whatever your home needs to be compliant, you see the full price before you book — and you keep the €300 SEAI refund either way.
