EV charging:

A brand new smart EV charger

With extensive compatibility, the Thor EV chargers can be used in all branded solar systems and EVs for both residential and commercial scenarios. There are two types of chargers - an AC EV charger in a 3 and 7-kilowatt version as well as an 11 and 22-kilowatt version) and a DC EV charger.

Easy Control

The Thor’s front panel integrates a touch screen and a card reading area. It is integrated into ‘GroHome’, an IoT system developed by Growatt, which allows users to conduct Remote Control, Multi-zone Control, Voice Control, Hotkey and Smart Scheduling on their user end devices. With the ‘ShinePhone’ app, users can remotely control and monitor the real-time status of charging as well as schedule different charging modes through multiple connection methods, including WiFi, LAN port and 4G.

Smart Charging

Thor supports three different charging modes — Fast Mode, Off-Peak Mode and PV Linkage Mode. With Fast Mode, the EVs can be charged with maximum speed, while Off-Peak Mode allows users to charge their EVs during off-peak hours with less charges from the grid.

When combined with PV system, PV Linkage Mode enables the charger to harness the power solely from solar to charge the EV and meanwhile realize a higher solar self-consumption rate and zero charging from the grid.

Enhanced Safety

Thor’s built-in type A+ 6mA DC fault protection saves the cost of installing an extra 6mA DC RCD, while its smart load balancing function can adjust its charging power dynamically according to the limited home power and avoid breaking the fuse and causing power outage, making it safe to use for customers.
