• Car Chargers

  • under construction.

  • The Government will contribute up to £350 towards the purchase and installation of your smart electric car charger. But there are certain requirements you must meet in order to qualify – here is what you need to know before claiming the OZEV Grant.

    THE PREVIOUS OZEV GRANT SCHEME HAS ENDED 
    If you are a homeowner, you can no longer apply for a Government Grant towards the cost of your charger installation. To book your installation, simply choose a charger and select Request a Quote to get started.

    There are new grants available set up by the Government, including:
    EV Chargepoint Grant for tenants and flat owner-occupiers
    EV Chargepoint Grant for landlords
    Workplace Charge Scheme

    What is the OZEV Grant?

    The Government offers up to £350 towards your home EV charger installation. This grant is called the Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme (EVHS) although it is commonly known as the OZEV Grant as it is administered by the Office for Zero Emissions Vehicles (OZEV for short).

    Can I get the OZEV Grant?

    There are a number of criteria you must meet in order to be eligible for the EVHS/OZEV Grant. You can learn more right here, but the key ones are:

    • You must have purchased, or have on order, an eligible vehicle that is listed on the OZEV vehicle list. Check if your vehicle is listed here.

    • You must also meet the vehicle ownership requirements, which we highly recommend checking here. 

    • You must have designated, off-street parking where a charging cable will not cross a pedestrian pavement. You can see full parking requirements below or here.

    • The charger must be OZEV-approved. All our charge points are eligible for the grant (except for the Tesla Wall Connector), but you can check the full list of OZEV-eligible chargers here.

    • You need to use an OZEV-approved installer such as Smart Home Charge (trading under Response EPR).

    • You are not eligible if you have previously claimed the grant (even under the old Domestic Recharge Scheme) unless you own 2 eligible vehicles at the same time, in which case you can claim the grant for a second charge point.
