Electric Vehicle Charging Grants
Formerly known as the Office for Low-Emission Vehicles (OLEV), the Office for Zero-Emission Vehicles (OZEV) aims to support the burgeoning electric vehicle market, in part by offering a number of grants that incentivise the switch to electric vehicles. Charge Ur Vehicle can assist residential and workplace customers by assessing your availability for these grants, walking you through the application process and helping to secure support for your electric vehicle charger.
EV Chargepoint Grants
The EV chargepoint grant provides funding of up to 75% towards the cost of installing electric vehicle smart chargepoints at domestic properties across the UK. The grant is capped at a maximum of £350. It replaced the Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme (EVHS) on 1 April 2022.
A smart EV charger must be installed by an OZEV approved installer. Please see links below for guidance and eligibility:

The WCS provides a maximum discount of 75% up to £350 per installation for up to 40 charging stations.
