The standard supply for a new house seems to be circa 18KVA single-phase. I have a client who needs to make application for a supply for a new build house at 400m2 with the only certain information being that an air source heat pump is to be used for heating. The client simply does not know what the electrical loading might be. The house is only coming out of the foundations but the DNO supply may take many months as the house is in a relatively remote rural location, thus loading details are required before the DNO will consider progressing the proposal. It is a big house, but that is what it is, just a big house. I am inclined to advise a standard supply but 3-phase as with a large AS heat pump, maybe shower, cooking and perhaps an EV or two, 18KVA wouldn't be long being gobbled up. As we move towards a higher reliance on electric as a power source for some heavy current-using equipment, it might be that 18KVA is no longer a realistic standard supply for even the smaller property.
Without battery, you need to rent a battery from Renault.
I think that was a Renault peculiarity - and one I gather they now backing off from - most EVs come complete with a battery set as part of the purchase price.

Renault have abandoned leased batteries on all new vehicles. The battery is included in the price.
