No. SunVerified does not receive live availability from these networks, so a station listed as operational may still be occupied or out of service when you arrive; check the operator's own app before relying on one. Every station here links to its Open Charge Map entry, which is where the operator and any recent user comments can be checked.
A home charger is a fixed electrical installation and needs a qualified electrician who can issue a certificate of compliance. The PV GreenCard register certifies companies for solar PV work rather than EV charging, so ask any installer directly about their charger experience and who signs off the certificate of compliance.
Yes, though the practical constraint is timing rather than capacity. Charging draws several kilowatts for hours, so it works best when the car is parked during daylight or when a battery can carry the load. Any installer quoting on this should size the array and inverter for the charger, not add it afterwards.
