You can charge from it, but not enough to keep up if you’re driving further than just around the corner to work every day and can’t charge at work.

240v charging adds 10-12km of driving range per hour. If your car is plugged in 12 hours from 7pm to 7am you can drive at least 120km each day. That's a lot further than "just around the corner" - that RACV page also notes that the average commute is about 30km per day so you only need 3 hours on an ordinary mains.
