EASY SURPLUS
solar charging

We believe in making it simple for any EV owner with solar to get the
maximum amount of free EV charging from their solar set-up.

Predictive Solar
any solar system
We use your energy data to predict and automatically charge from your excess solar - no setup required.
We don't think you should have to make expensive upgrades to your solar system to pair it with your EV.

Predictive Solar analyses millions of data points to forecast the solar surplus you can put into your EV, no extra hardware needed.
Connected Solar
compatible inverters
Wirelessly sync your solar inverter and your EV to charge from solar even more accurately.
When we can talk directly to your solar inverter, we know exactly how much your system is generating.

Each minute we get new data which we combine with your current home energy consumption to update your EV charge rate.

WHAT's the alternative?

Miss out on free kilometres or install a solar charger.
Other energy companies don't want to help you use more of your solar, since they profit off how much of their energy you use. On these plans, you’ll only capture some of the potential free charging that’s available to you unless you install a pricier excess-solar capable charger, or a Powerwall.

PRICE-AWARE CHARGING

Capture all the best times to charge

Charge your EV when energy is free or close to free. Amber's smart tech and wholesale pricing lets you tap into when cheap renewables are powering the grid. Perfect if you don't have solar or need a bit more from the grid to get fully charged.

Auto charge when pricing is cheapest
Amber for EVs hunts for the best times to charge, by looking at forecasts of wholesale pricing for the day ahead. Automatically scoop up deals on your charging without manual scheduling.
Run on cleaner energy, not coal and gas
Turns out the cheapest times to charge are also usually the cleanest (unlike those overnight plans). Save on costs while running your EV on the lowest emissions energy out there.
Get paid to charge
It might sound crazy but it’s true: there are times when there’s so much solar in the grid that wholesale prices drop below zero. That’s when we’ll pay you to charge.

What's the alternative?

Big Energy’s fixed flat plan.
If you like charging at a flat rate at a fixed time, another energy company might work best for you. If you like the idea of a smarter way to grab more of the free or super cheap charging opportunities out there, we can help. And we won't ask you to charge overnight on coal and gas either.

BATTERY

IN sync WITH your home battery

We're building for a future where your whole home energy system works in harmony.
For now, our EV customers with home batteries told us they want two things:

Control where my
solar goes
Choose whether your EV or your battery charges first, and when to switch over.
Don’t charge my EV from my battery
Without a way of stopping it, EV charging will drain your home battery. Now you have the choice to preserve your battery energy when your EV is charging.

WHAT's the alternative?

There really isn't one.  
If you have a home battery that’s compatible with Amber for Batteries, join Amber and we’ll optimise your battery and EV charging for even better bills. You can sit back knowing that your entire system is optimised to run your EV and home on the cheapest, greenest energy available, giving you all the good feels from supporting Australia’s energy transition.

OUR MISSION

ACCELERATE our
renewable future

Be part of the movement to do energy differently: by using smart tech to lower bills and accelerate Australia’s renewable shift.

  • Building smarter for a greener future
    We’re committed to accelerating the renewable transition, and electric vehicle (EV) charging presents a monumental opportunity for individuals to lead the way. By drawing electric loads at optimal times, residents can play a key role in shaping a sustainable energy future.
  • Democratising access to solar
    We’re at a critical point in the energy transition where there’s a lot of solar in the energy grid but not enough people using it. Bills go up while energy gets cheaper. It’s why we’re automating EVs to use more energy when it’s greener, and making excess solar charging available without expensive hardware upgrades.
  • Unlocking the power of V2G

    Smart EV charging is just the first step in our multi-year, $3.2 million Australian Renewable Enery Agency (ARENA)-backed program to unlock the next stage of the renewable energy revolution. Starting in 2025, we’ll develop our Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G)  solution for compatible EVs. Learn more and get involved.

Well that was a lucrative day. Charges both cars, ran the house heat pump a/c with the doors open, charged up the Powerwalls, and got paid to do it! @TeslaAUNZ @teslaenergy @AmberElectricAU #energyabundace #superpower @tonyseba
