To encourage UK drivers to switch to electric and reduce emissions, the government’s OZEV (Office for Zero-Emission Vehicles) offers a grant to help towards the cost of an EV chargepoint
The WCS (Workplace Charging Scheme) is a UK Government grant administered by OZEV (The Office for Zero Emission Vehicles). The scheme is designed to help with the upfront costs of installing new electric vehicle chargepoints. You can apply for the WCS if you are a business, charity or public sector organisation of any size.
The WCS saves you £350 for each chargepoint socket that you have installed. It operates as a voucher based system, meaning you benefit from an upfront cost reduction. OZEV limits the grant to a maximum of 40 sockets per organisation.
How do you apply?
You will need to complete an online application form and if successful, you will be given a voucher code. Contact us with this voucher code, and we do the rest.
If you’re considering switching your company cars or fleet to electric and want to take advantage of the Workplace Charge Scheme, get in touch today.
The grant covers 75% of the cost of a chargepoint, capped at £350 per eligible vehicle. You can claim one chargepoint per vehicle and up to two chargepoints per household.
How do you apply?
You need to fill in an online form and we claim on your behalf. We receive the grant from OZEV and take this off the cost you pay to us. Contact us and we’ll talk you through the application process.
