Serving Shafter, CA
For homes in and around Shafter, Charge Home Solutions handles Level 2 EV charger installation, Tesla Powerwall battery backup, electrical panel upgrades, and full residential electrical service. As a Kern County city of about 18,500, Shafter pairs everyday electrical repairs with rising demand for EV charging and Tesla Powerwall backup.
Here in California, PSPS public-safety shutoffs and wildfire-season outages make battery backup especially valuable, and high electricity rates and NEM 3.0 make pairing solar with a battery one of the smartest upgrades, which shapes how we plan each Shafter install.
An electrical panel upgrade to 200 amps is often the first step before adding an EV charger, battery, or heat pump, and many Shafter homes turn out to have enough capacity already. Whole-home backup, from a Powerwall to a standby generator, keeps your Shafter home running when the grid goes down, automatically, with no manual switching.
Because we are Tesla Energy Certified, Shafter Wall Connector and Powerwall installs are done to manufacturer spec and stay under warranty. We work to Title 24 and PG&E, SCE, and SDG&E requirements. We pull the permit, coordinate inspection, and hand you the documentation.
Most Shafter homes are served by PG&E / SCE / SDG&E, and we handle the interconnection and permitting that come with adding an EV charger or battery on that system. SMUD & PG&E charger rebates can offset part of the cost, and we identify what applies at your address during the free estimate.
Time-of-use rates change the math for Shafter homeowners: a battery or a smart EV charger can shift usage to cheaper overnight hours automatically, and we set the schedule up during installation so the savings are hands-off from day one.
Heat-pump and induction conversions are rising in Shafter, and each one adds load. We run the calculation up front so your panel, feeders, and breakers are ready before the appliances arrive, avoiding a scramble and a second visit later.
EV charging is the request we hear most in Shafter. A dedicated 240-volt circuit is the heart of the job: correctly sized wire, a dedicated breaker, and a code-compliant run from your panel to the parking spot. Simple garage installs land at the low end of the $400–$1,500 range; long runs and finished walls add labor. Either way, you charge overnight and wake up full.
Here's what working with us in Shafter looks like. First, a licensed electrician visits your home for a free assessment, checking the panel, measuring runs, and running the load calculation. You get a fixed, written quote on the spot or the same day. Work is scheduled at your convenience, the Kern County permit is pulled before we start, and inspection is coordinated after. Most single-service jobs finish in one visit.
