## Charge HQ Description
Charge HQ reduces your charging costs by charging your EV from your own solar or off-peak energy from the grid, whilst ensuring your vehicle is charged each day. Charge HQ works with the equipment you already have.

WORKS WITH EXISTING EQUIPMENT
 * Tesla owners and all other EVs connected to supported wall chargers can use Charge HQ with no additional equipment.

CHARGE FROM YOUR ROOFTOP SOLAR
 * Charge HQ talks directly to your rooftop solar inverter or home battery to understand how much excess solar is available for EV charging.
 * Charging is controlled to match the available generation from your solar system.

INTELLIGENT GRID TOP-UPS
 * Where insufficient solar energy exists during the day, Charge HQ can top up from the grid during off-peak periods to ensure you have sufficient charge for your daily driving.

BENEFITS
 * Helps you charge from the cheapest and greenest sources of energy
 * Improves the payback on rooftop solar systems
 * Supports the development of more renewable energy generation
 * Reduces fossil fuel use in EV charging

CHARGE STATS
* View your charging history (kWh) by day, month or year.
* For those with solar, you can view the breakdown of where the charging energy came from: solar, battery or the grid.

(*) SUPPORTED EQUIPMENT
Current compatibility includes:
 * Direct EV support: Tesla
 * Wall Chargers: ABB, Circontrol, Delta, EO, Fronius, Keba, MG ChargeHub, Ocular IQ, Schneider, Wallbox, ZJ Beny and more
 * Solar Inverters: Fronius, GoodWe, Growatt, SolarEdge, Solax, Solis, Sungrow, Tesla
 * Home Batteries: Tesla Powerwall and most batteries connected to supported solar inverters

## Charge HQ Reviews in Australia

### ***** "Fantastic"
This app became the cornerstone of the charging approach for my EV as it allows for excess solar to be directed towards the car. 

One thing I would love to see - a SOC graph alongside the generation graphs. 

This would help LFP owners such as myself, who only charge to 100% every X number of days (LFP, like other battery types, doesn’t like being at 100%, especially when it’s hot), to see when our last full charge was. 

Hopefully the app remains supported since being purchased by Amber.
-- anti-bait, 2026-05-14

### ***** "always charge price should be combined with schedule charging"
please add this feature
-- justAPhone, 2025-08-04

### *---- "OK with one vehicle, terrible with two"
The App almost worked as advertised with one Tesla, but doesn’t cope at all now that I’ve got two.
Great concept but needs a heap of work:
-- P Buza, 2024-08-18

### ***** "No solar? No worries!"
Guys, even if you don’t have solar or battery, this app is FANTASTIC at making sure you’re charging when it’s cheap. All you need to do is set up your power providers API details in the app (super easy to do), set a few preferences & you’re off any running. Very happy 😃
-- Swaytan666, 2024-05-23

### ***** "Brilliant"
I was lucky enough to be referred to this app while it was still free, but it’s so good I’m going to go subscription to support the team behind this. I hope Tesla doesn’t buy them as they’ll screw it up for sure. I found it a bit tricky to set up, but after leaving out some of the options, it did it’s thing like a charm. Can’t believe the Tesla guys with their ludicrous 1/2 gigabyte app can’t offer even part of it’s functionality. Even just the power source tracking makes it so useful, then you’ve got the automatic solar tracking so you don’t have to keep juggling charging rates to make best use of excess solar. Just to clarify, we’ve got a powerwall and a model 3 with the Tesla power router and the Tesla app still doesn’t do half of Charge HQ’s stuff.
-- Art Hackett, 2024-04-04

### ***** "Essential app for EV drivers"
This app is fantastic for EV owners with a modern solar system. The app reads the output from your solar inverter and then allows you to use only solar to charge your EV. Seamless and brilliant.
-- Rob_2020, 2024-03-18

### ***** "Super smart set and forget solar EV charger"
It was a great relief when Charge HQ came along!

Prior to that I’d been monitoring solar production and starting and stopping charging manually. 

The app has loads of features catering for all EV usage scenarios and charging requirements. 

I don’t have a home battery yet but Charge HQ even supports that as well. 

Highly recommended!
-- de Hanslope, 2023-10-18

### ***** "Up and running in 10 mins"
I am very impressed with Charge HQ.  I have an existing solar system and bought OCPP compliant ZJ Beny charger.  The guidance on ChargeHQ's website was perfect and I was up and  running in 10 mins.  
The app interface is very well considered.  A good amount of detail and control.  My car is now charging only when solar is available, or if I override it and tel it to charge anyway.  Great app.
Look forward to control of other devices one day?
-- Lexicographer239, 2023-10-14

### ***** "Great product"
Love it. 

Bit of mucking around setting it up as we have two teslas and two fronius inverters on two separate phases. No reflection on the product. Just not a typical house. 

I ended up setting up two charge HQ accounts, one for each car. Saw the Amber link and set that up too. Works great. Much cheaper. Hasn’t missed a beat.

I set the “always charge” price to 10c/kwh plus solar excess charging. It just works and makes charging the cars a seamless and low cost activity. 

Very impressive product. Nice work.
-- canister75, 2023-10-04

### ***** "Aussie innovation at its best!!"
Australian government should be promoting this app to the world. Recognise a market leader that could make a global impact.

Tesla ought to buy it and integrate into its own software.

No extra hardware required but a simple software solution to feed excess solar to your car.

Can’t discuss EV’s with friends and family without mentioning Charge HQ. It literally convinces people to go EV path.
