About GoodWe

AC EV charging designed to work with GoodWe solar and storage

GoodWe brings AC EV charging into the same platform as its solar inverters and batteries, so households can charge from surplus solar and manage everything from one app.

GoodWe develops solar inverters, battery storage and EV charging within one connected platform. Its HCA Series AC chargers are designed to prioritise surplus rooftop solar and coordinate charging with a GoodWe solar and storage system.

  • One connected ecosystem

    Solar generation, battery storage and EV charging are managed together through the GoodWe SEMS platform.

  • Full charging range

    Single and three-phase models span 7 kW to 22 kW to suit different homes and switchboards.

  • Solar-aware charging

    Paired with a GoodWe PV and storage system, the charger can prioritise surplus rooftop solar for the car.

In Sunbridge’s eyes

EV charging as the fourth piece of a GoodWe home

GoodWe built its Australian name as a value inverter and battery brand, and the HCA charger extends that same ecosystem to the driveway — a tethered Type 2 AC charger in 7 kW single-phase and 11/22 kW three-phase, all sitting inside the one SEMS app alongside your GoodWe inverter and Lynx Home or ESA battery. Its real pitch isn’t standalone charging spec; it’s that a household already running GoodWe hardware can push 100% surplus solar into the car and manage PV, battery and charging from a single screen. If you’re not already on GoodWe gear there are sharper standalone chargers — but as the fourth piece of a GoodWe home, it’s a clean, cost-effective fit.

  • One-app story that holds up — PV, battery and EV charging all live in SEMS, no third-party bridge.
  • Genuine surplus-solar charging when paired with a GoodWe PV and storage system — free kilometres off the roof.
  • Solid outdoor hardware — IP66, Type A + 6 mA DC RCD built in, −30 to +55 °C, 6 m tethered Type 2 cable.
  • A full spread of 7 / 11 / 22 kW, so it suits both single-phase homes and faster three-phase installs.
Best suited to

homes already running a GoodWe inverter or ESA/Lynx Home battery that want EV charging in the same app and running on surplus solar, rather than buyers shopping for the smartest standalone charger.
