Charge when it suits you

Scheduled charging allows you to choose when your vehicle charges. This makes it easier to plan charging around your normal routine and, where applicable, make use of off-peak or time-of-use electricity tariffs. Charging can be managed through the app, giving you access to charging controls and charging records from a compatible smartphone.
 

Make better use of your solar generation

For homes with a compatible solar PV system and suitable system configuration, the Fox ESS A Series can direct available surplus solar generation towards EV charging.

Rather than automatically exporting all unused solar generation to the grid, available surplus energy can be used to help charge your electric vehicle.

The manufacturer specifically lists renewable energy compatibility and direct use of surplus solar power for EV charging as A Series features.
 

Dynamic load balancing

The A Series supports dynamic load balancing, helping manage EV charging alongside the electrical demand from the rest of the property.

When correctly configured as part of the installation, charging demand can be managed in response to household electrical load, helping keep the total demand within the configured limits of the property's electricity supply.
 

Flexible ways to connect and charge

The A Series several ways to manage and start charging sessions, including:

• App control
• RFID card
• Plug & Charge
• Bluetooth
• 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi
• Ethernet connection

The charger also supports OCPP 1.6 JSON or OCPP 2.0.1, providing additional flexibility for compatible charging management systems.
