Benefits Of Installing Your Own EV Home Charger
Convenience &
Accessibility
With an EV charger installed in your home , you’ll enjoy the convenience of charging your electric vehicle overnight or whenever it’s most convenient for you. No more trips to public charging stations or waiting in line to power up your EV. Having a dedicated charger at home ensures easy access to charging whenever you need it, right in your own driveway or garage.
Cost Savings &
Efficiency
Opting for an EV charger installation at your home can lead to significant cost savings over time. Charging your electric vehicle at home typically costs less than relying on public charging stations. Plus, with advancements in EV charger technology, you can take advantage of features like scheduling and energy management to optimise charging times and reduce electricity expenses, ultimately improving the efficiency of your EV ownership experience.
Environmental Benefits & Sustainability
By installing an EV charger at your home, you’re not just investing in your own convenience and savings—you’re also contributing to a cleaner, greener environment. Electric vehicles produce zero tailpipe emissions, helping to reduce air pollution and combat climate change. By making the switch to electric transportation and supporting the adoption of EVs through home charging infrastructure, you’re playing a crucial role in promoting sustainability and reducing your carbon footprint for a brighter, cleaner future.
FUNDING FOR YOUR EV CHARGER
Are you buying an electric vehicle? Did you know there is government funding for landlords, flat owners and rental tenants, subject to criteria? Contact us for advice and a quote to fit your EV charge point.
Electric vehicles also offer you an opportunity that a petrol or diesel car doesn’t – to refuel at home. Typically, charging from home will be cheaper than on-street or public EV charging options. What’s more, if you have a solar panel system, your costs will be further reduced.
Government Grants:
Did you know you might qualify for a government grant for your home electric vehicle charger?
The government’s EV chargepoint grant provides funding of up to 75% towards the cost of installing electric vehicle smart chargepoints at domestic properties across the UK. Grants are available for up to £350 per EV charger to flat owners, landlords, renters, freeholders and leaseholders.
Multi-unit buildings can receive funding for a maximum of 200 sockets or £70,000. Businesses and charities can also apply with Small business owners able to claim up to £15,000.

Offset Your EV Charger Costs:
Did you know you can also offset your EV charger costs by renting out your charger to your neighbours? You can do this by either a private arrangement or through peer-to-peer charging companies, who will charge a subscription fee or commission.
