Wallbox and Solar System: The Best Benefits
Combining your own solar system with a wallbox means charging at the lowest cost, increasing self-consumption and easing the Swiss power grid. Discover all the benefits.
The most important benefits at a glance
When you charge your electric car at a smart wallbox with your own solar electricity, you benefit several times over. You become independent of the unpredictable developments in electricity prices of the Swiss grid operators and drive almost free of charge.
Maximum savings: self-produced solar electricity costs significantly less per kilowatt-hour than electricity from the public grid.
Higher self-consumption: an electric car is one of the largest electricity consumers in the household. By charging it, you massively increase your self-consumption share.
Smart surplus charging: modern wallboxes charge the car only when your solar system supplies more energy than is consumed in the house.
- up to 40%
- Higher self-consumption from charging the electric car
- 0.00 CHF
- Fossil-free fuel costs with pure solar charging

Questions and answers about solar mobility
With PV surplus charging, a smart energy management system measures how much electricity the solar system produces and how much is consumed in the house. The surplus electricity, which would otherwise flow into the grid, is directed specifically into the electric car's battery.
Yes, absolutely. The electric car essentially acts as a large energy store itself. If the car is at home during the day, the wallbox can charge the solar electricity directly into the vehicle without an expensive home storage being necessary.
This is regulated very differently at cantonal and municipal level. Some cantons and many municipalities or local energy suppliers support the installation of a smart wallbox with significant contributions. It is worth clarifying this in advance.
