A smart charger is designed to make EV charging more efficient and convenient for electric vehicle owners. Like all at-home wall-mounted EV chargers, smart chargers are up to ten times faster, making charging your car quick and simple. However, the main difference is in the extra features. When power isn’t needed immediately, smart chargers can automatically adjust the charging times to when energy costs are lowest – providing further savings on your energy bill.
Yes, you can pay for your charger upfront. You can choose to pay for the charger and installation in full, or via regular instalments through your energy bill. There are also several options for interest-free loans through the ActewAGL Appliance Payment Plan – subject to eligibility.
The price of the installation varies depending on your premises. ActewAGL will arrange for an installation quote through our partners and, once accepted, will help manage the process.
The ACT Sustainable Household Scheme has been designed by the ACT government to encourage households to adopt more sustainable and energy-efficient practices in their homes. The program provides up to $15,000 in rebates and incentives to eligible households for the installation of a range of sustainable products and services, including electric vehicle chargers.
You may be eligible for an interest-free loan through the Sustainable Household Scheme for your electric vehicle charger. An ActewAGL Electrification Consultant can help you with more information about the process.
You don’t need to do anything beforehand, just let us know when you enquire about our charging options and we’ll submit an application on your behalf. Please note the Sustainable Household Scheme is subject to certain terms and conditions, learn more here.

Alternatively, you may be eligible for an interest-free loan through the ACT Government Sustainable Household Scheme.
