Wallbox Zurich: charging stations from a specialist company

Planning and installing wallboxes in and around Zurich: manufacturer-independent, with an eye on your existing or planned photovoltaic system.

Wallbox Zurich – charging stations from a specialist company

ecoEn plans and installs wallboxes in and around Zurich – as a direct specialist company, manufacturer-independent and with an eye on your existing or planned photovoltaic system. From a simple wall charging station to load management for several vehicles, we handle planning, installation and registration.

We work in the City and Canton of Zurich as well as in the cantons of Aargau, Zug, Schwyz, Thurgau and Schaffhausen. If you want to run the wallbox on solar power, ideally combine it right away with a photovoltaic system and battery storage – we match the systems to each other.

Why ecoEn for your wallbox?

How your wallbox gets connected

From the first conversation to a working charging station – the process is straightforward, the details depend on your location.

  1. Initial consultationFree and without obligation: we discuss the vehicle, charging power and whether a photovoltaic system should be integrated.
  2. Site checkMeter cabinet, cable route and protection: we check what's technically possible at your location.
  3. QuoteTransparently itemised, including device, installation and registration.
  4. Registration with the grid operatorWallboxes must be registered – we handle the registration for you.
  5. InstallationProfessional electrical installation by our own team.
  6. Commissioning & handoverTesting, instruction and handover – after that, we remain your point of contact.

What does a wallbox cost?

The mistake would be to look only at the device price: the bigger and more variable item is the installation – it depends mainly on the route between the meter box and the parking space.

ItemGuidelineWhat drives it
Wallbox devicefrom a few hundred to over CHF 1,000Power, smart functions, load management
InstallationCHF 1,500–3,000Cable route, meter box, circuit breaker
Additional workapprox. CHF 500–1,000Wall breakthrough, long routes
Total (single-family home)around CHF 2,500–5,000Overall situation

Guideline values as of July 2026 – the individual quote after the site check is decisive. In the simplest case, with the parking space right next to a modern meter box, the total may also be lower.

Incentives in the Canton of Zurich: CHF 500 per parking space

The Canton of Zurich subsidises charging infrastructure with CHF 500 per equipped parking space (up to 15 spaces, then CHF 300 per additional space) and with CHF 2,000 per bidirectional DC charging station; for charging points at company sites, it's 30 percent of the costs up to a maximum of CHF 60,000 per application. For a single-family home, that's a small bonus – for an apartment building with ten parking spaces, it's CHF 5,000.

The pot is almost empty: of the CHF 50 million framework credit, 96 percent had already been claimed by 22 September 2026; the programme ends as soon as the funds are used up, but at the latest at the end of 2026. From two equipped parking spaces, the canton requires load management, and only one application is permitted per parking facility – supplementary applications are excluded. We submit the incentive application for you.

Further guides on wallboxes

Wallbox plus solar power: from one hand

If you want to charge your EV cheaply, combine the wallbox with a photovoltaic system and use your own solar power; battery storage increases the share you can charge yourself. Because we plan and install all trades ourselves, we match the systems to each other from the start – the overview of the complete solution from one hand shows how it all works together.

What our quote includes – and what it doesn't

The most common worry before signing isn't the price but the question of what gets added at the end. That's why we show both.

Included: planning and design, materials (modules, inverter, mounting system, cabling), scaffolding, installation, the electrical connection by our own specialist company, commissioning and measurement, registration with the grid operator and the incentive application to Pronovo – we submit it for you.

Shown separately: anything added in individual cases appears as its own item in the quote, not in a lump sum. The most common case: if the existing meter distribution board – the fuse box – is not suitable for the system and needs to be adapted, we invoice this separately. Depending on the property, official fees and work provided by the client may also apply.

Payment in stages, linked to project progress. Under our terms and conditions (AGB), that's 30% on placing the order, 50% on delivery of the main components and 20% after commissioning and acceptance. We agree different terms on a project basis; the arrangement in your quote always applies.

Who is liable for what

After the company bankruptcies in the Swiss solar industry, this is the question that counts in the end – and it has three different answers:

  • Product and performance warranties lie with the manufacturer of the modules, inverter and storage. A manufacturer's warranty is only ever as reliable as the manufacturer behind it – that's why, when choosing products, we also consider who will still be reachable if something goes wrong.
  • The installation warranty lies with us: installation, electrical work, commissioning. That's the part we honour directly.
  • Business liability insurance: as an installation company, we carry liability insurance.

In the event of a fault, you have one point of contact – us – regardless of whose component is affected.

QUESTIONS

Questions about e-mobility

As a guideline, CHF 2,500 to 5,000 for a single-family home (as of July 2026). The device is available from a few hundred francs; the bigger item is the installation at around CHF 1,500 to 3,000, depending on the cable route and meter box. The quote after the site check is decisive.
Yes, wallboxes must be registered with the grid operator. We handle the registration for you.
In the Canton of Zurich, yes: CHF 500 per equipped parking space up to 15 spaces, CHF 2,000 per bidirectional DC charging station and, for company sites, 30 percent up to a maximum of CHF 60,000 per application. On 22 September 2026, 96 percent of the framework credit had been claimed; the programme ends at the latest at the end of 2026. We submit the incentive application for you.
Yes – in combination with a photovoltaic system, you preferably charge with your own solar power (surplus charging). Battery storage further increases the usable share.
With several vehicles or in an apartment building, usually yes – load management automatically distributes the available power and prevents the service connection from being overloaded.
That depends on the vehicle and the service connection. Many vehicles only charge single-phase or with limited power anyway – we clarify this during the site check.
The electrical installation itself usually takes one day; plus time for registration and scheduling.
Yes. We plan and install the photovoltaic system, battery storage and wallbox as one system – one point of contact, one contract, matched components and surplus charging from day one. This applies to single-family homes as well as apartment buildings and underground car parks with load management, in the Zurich region and in the cantons of Aargau, Zug, Schwyz, Thurgau and Schaffhausen.
We work manufacturer-independently. The most frequently requested wallboxes we offer are Zaptec Go, go-e Charger and Gemini, KEBA P30 and P40 and Easee; with Fronius or Huawei systems, the inverter manufacturer's Wattpilot or SCharger is often used. Which box fits depends on the vehicle, service connection, control and number of charging points – we determine this during planning (as of September 2026).
Yes. The initial consultation and quote are free and without obligation.
