The government acknowledges the significant benefits of electric vehicles (EVs) and the necessity to enhance existing infrastructure. To support this, up to £350 in funding is available through the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) grant, previously known as the Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV).
Transitioning to electric vehicles is a vital step in decarbonizing our transport system and reducing air pollution through zero tailpipe emissions. Recognizing the importance of convenient home charging solutions, the government has introduced a scheme to facilitate this process.
What is the OZEV Electric Vehicle Home Charge Scheme (EVHS)?
The EVHS is a government-funded initiative designed to assist eligible individuals in installing electric vehicle charging points at their homes. The grant allows for the installation of one charge point per qualifying vehicle, with a maximum of two charge points per property if there are two eligible vehicles. The grant covers 75% of the installation cost, up to a cap of £350 per charge point, including VAT.
How the Grant Works
As approved OZEV installers, we handle the entire application process on behalf of the customer. We verify eligibility and apply for the grant, which is then deducted from the total cost of the installation. This streamlined process ensures that the cost quoted to the customer already reflects the grant subsidy.
Eligibility Requirements
To qualify for the grant, the applicant must:
Own, lease, or have ordered a qualifying electric vehicle.
Have dedicated off-street parking at their property.
Use OZEV-approved charge points installed by an OZEV-approved installer.
