The remaining 25% must be funded by the owner of the electric car. To be eligible for the scheme you must have the EV charge point installed by an OLEV approved installer. You must also have off-street parking at your home and an eligible electric vehicle.

The scheme was also introduced to encourage businesses to switch their fleets of vehicles to electric. The scheme offers £300 off the purchase and installation of a workplace EV charger. The grant can be claimed for up to 20 single point EV charge points or 10 double socket EV chargers. This grant is available to businesses, charities and public authorities.
