What is the OZEV EV chargepoint grant?
The Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) Electric Vehicle (EV) Chargepoint grant allows people who live in rental accommodation or own a flat to reduce the cost of buying and installing a home charger by £350.
What is the eligibility criteria?
To be eligible for the grant, you must:
- Live in rental accommodation or own a flat
- Have dedicated off-street parking
- Own, lease or have an eligible vehicle on order
- Not have already claimed a chargepoint grant for the vehicle
Additionally, please note that you can no longer claim for 2 chargepoints if you own a second EV.
How do I claim the grant?
My contacting a member of our team we can help you understand the process and help you through it step by step.
If you live in a flat we need to assess whether you can have a charger connected to your flat’s electrical supply and meter, as you may be able to use the same checkout as those renting a house. However, for most people living in flats your charging unit will be connected to a communal supply and meter, in which case we request that you ask your property manager to get in touch with us about our Residential EV Charging Solution.
Please note, your landlord or property manager may be able to claim an additional £500 per bay (up to 60 bays) towards the cost of installing infrastructure for you and your neighbours via the EV infrastructure grant for residential car parks, This grant will reduce the impact on your Service Charge budget and may help to convince your neighbours that EV infrastructure is a priority for your property.
