Hi @Nick Challacombe 

Not sure if you’ve found this page yet: https://www.ovoenergy.com/electric-cars/smart-charger

OVO members get £70 off the chargers listed. The Indra Smart PRO charger works with solar and can also be used with the +Anytime add-on to the Drive tariff.

Also highly regarded for solar setups is the Zappi charger, so you may want to take a look at this one as well.

Thank you Neal, No I had not found that page, I think the site is a bit like a computer game and I had not found that access. Thank you.

My installer recommended Zappi so I will have another look at that.

Very helpful

It is exactly like a computer game and we are merely players.

You are standing in a room with doors leading to the north, west and east. Sunlight can be seen through the crack in the door to the east, whilst to the north the faint sound of hammering can be heard in the distance. To the west you can hear the sound of running water.

Do you:

Go north:

 Go east: 

Go west:

I cannot get a smart meter where I live. But if I buy a EV car charger, will I be able to get reduced costs to charge the car, we have good internet connection

Short answer is probably not.

Do you currently have a single rate meter? Economy 7 could be a middle ground, although not as exciting.

What is the reason for not being able to have a smart meter? Is it geographical or logistical with your property? Knowing this may be able to unearth some potential options.

Geographical, we dont have the necessary mobile network. OVO web site state it's not available in our area. Yes we have a single rate meter.
