Smarter EV Charging Starts at Home with Ohme
As more Australians make the switch to electric vehicles, home charging has quickly become an essential part of modern energy management. But today’s EV chargers are about much more than simply supplying power.
The latest generation of smart chargers can work alongside rooftop solar, respond to changing electricity tariffs and help homeowners make better use of the energy they already produce.
That’s why DPA Energy is pleased to introduce Ohme to our growing range of electrification solutions.
Designed specifically for the Australian market, Ohme combines intelligent charging software with simple, reliable hardware to help homeowners charge their vehicles more efficiently while giving installers a premium solution that’s easy to recommend and install.
Charging That Works With the Home
Unlike conventional EV chargers that begin charging as soon as the vehicle is plugged in, Ohme continuously looks for the most economical and sustainable way to charge.
Through the Ohme app, users can:
- Schedule charging around time-of-use electricity tariffs
- Automatically charge during lower-cost periods
- Prioritise excess solar generation
- Monitor charging costs and energy usage
- Set charging targets to suit their daily driving requirements
For homeowners with rooftop solar, this means making greater use of self-generated energy rather than exporting it to the grid, helping maximise the value of their solar investment.
Built for Australia’s Changing Energy Landscape
Australia has one of the highest rates of rooftop solar adoption in the world, while time-of-use electricity tariffs are becoming increasingly common.
Ohme has been developed to take advantage of both.
Every charger includes a CT clamp that enables home load balancing while supporting solar charging, helping ensure the home’s electrical supply is managed safely while directing available solar energy into the vehicle whenever possible.
Rather than treating an EV as another electrical appliance, Ohme becomes part of a smarter home energy ecosystem.
Simple for Homeowners. Trusted by Installers.
For installers, reliability and simplicity matter just as much as advanced functionality.
Ohme chargers are designed for straightforward installation while delivering the features customers increasingly expect from a premium EV charging solution.
Every charger includes:
- 7.4kW single-phase charging
- Smart charging via the Ohme app
- Wi-Fi connectivity
- Over-the-air software updates
- Home load balancing
- Solar compatibility
- 3-year warranty
- Australian compliance and local support
As software evolves, new functionality can continue to be delivered through firmware updates, helping keep the charger current long after installation.
Choosing the Right Ohme Charger
DPA Energy stocks three Ohme models to suit different installations and customer preferences.
Ohme Home Pro 5m
The Home Pro combines smart charging with a premium colour LCD display and an integrated 5-metre Type 2 tethered cable, making it an excellent everyday charging solution for most Australian homes.
Ohme Home Pro 8m
Offering all the features of the Home Pro, the 8m version provides additional flexibility where parking layouts require extra cable reach or multiple parking positions.
Ohme ePod
The compact ePod is an untethered charger featuring a universal Type 2 socket, allowing users to connect their own charging cable. Its minimalist design makes it ideal where a discreet installation or compatibility with multiple vehicle connector types is preferred.
A Natural Fit Within DPA’s Electrification Solutions
As homes continue to electrify through solar, battery storage, EV charging and smarter energy management, selecting products that work together is becoming increasingly important.
Adding Ohme strengthens DPA Energy’s ability to support installers delivering complete residential energy solutions rather than individual products.
Whether paired with rooftop solar, battery storage or future home electrification projects, Ohme provides a smart, connected charging platform that helps homeowners reduce charging costs while making better use of renewable energy.
For installers, it represents another dependable, future-ready solution backed by DPA Energy’s technical support and wholesale distribution network.
