Smart Solar Integration with Ohme Home Pro EV Charger
The Ohme Home Pro supports solar charging through its Solar Boost feature, allowing users to charge their EV using surplus solar energy. When paired with the included CT clamp, the charger can detect excess solar generation and redirect it to the vehicle.
This enables homeowners to reduce reliance on grid electricity and maximise the benefits of rooftop solar, lowering both energy costs and carbon emissions.
Intelligent Charging Modes
Ohme’s core strength lies in its dynamic smart charging technology. The charger connects to energy tariffs and automatically schedules charging during the cheapest and greenest times.
Key features include:
- Automatic charging based on time-of-use tariffs
- App-based scheduling and remote control
- Real-time energy monitoring
- Charging targets (e.g., charge by a specific time)
This makes it one of the most cost-optimised chargers available in Australia.
Battery System Compatibility
The Ohme Home Pro is designed primarily for grid and solar optimisation rather than deep battery integration. However, it can still operate effectively in homes with battery storage by prioritising available solar energy through its CT-based monitoring system.
While it does not directly control battery systems, its smart load balancing and solar diversion help ensure efficient energy use across the home.
