The office for
low emission vehicles (OLEV) is a team within the UK government
working to support the early adoption of ultra low emission vehicles
(ULEV).
The electric vehicle homecharge scheme (EVHS) is a grant provided by OLEV, aimed
at offering an additional incentive to UK EV drivers. It offers up to
£350 towards the cost of installing smart electric vehicle
chargepoints at domestic properties across the UK.
The government announced that from 2019, all new EV chargepoints being installed
must use innovative “smart” technology. This means they must be
able to be remotely accessed and capable of receiving, interpreting
and reacting to a signal. Smart charging helps to reduce demand on
the grid by allowing EV drivers to charge at off peak hours, often at
a better rate.
To qualify for the EVHS grant you need the following:
You must have off street parking.
Your EV must have been purchased on or after 1st October 2016.
Your car must be eligible for the grant. A full list of eligible cars can be
found at https://www.gov.uk/plug-in-car-van-grants
The charger must be approved. All chargers supplied and fitted by
evchargingni are approved.
Your installation must be carried out by an OLEV approved installer. All of our installers are OLEV approved.
The date of installation should not be more than 4 months before the date of delivery of the car.
The Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS) is a government scheme for electric
vehicles offered by the Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV).
The WCS reduces the purchase and installation cost of a new workplace charging station (single socket) by 75% (capped at £350 per socket).
A single business can claim for up to a maximum of 40 chargepoints (e.g. 40 single socket or 20 double socket chargepoints).
You can't retrospectively claim for existing chargepoints on your premises.
The WCS is available to any business, charity or public authority, with
some conditions including the following:
You must have sufficient off-street parking.
While you do not need to currently have electric vehicles as part of your fleet, you will need to express an existing or future need for the business.
You must have the charging station installed by an OLEV-approved workplace charging station installer like Pod Point.
The WCS is a voucher based system.
First you complete an online application at
https://www.apply-workplace-chargepoint-grant.service.gov.uk/
If successful you will be emailed a voucher code which you can then present to your OLEV-approved installer. Your installer will then use this to claim the grant after the installation is complete.
The voucher code is valid for 120 days from the date of issue.
