The Electric Vehicle Home Charge Scheme (EHVS) provides grant funding of up to 75% towards the cost of installing electric vehicle charge points at domestic properties across the UK.
From 1st July 2019, the EHVS will only support smart charge points as announced in December 2018. As OLEV certified installers we can offer advice and help you with your application. On top of the EVHS, the Energy Saving Trust is offering a further £300 grant towards the installation of electric vehicle charge points, reducing the cost dramatically.

Driving an electric car that is charged by your solar panels is an excellent way to ensure your transportation is both cost-efficient and emissions-free.
Many EV owners think of the purchasing a solar system as pre-buying their fuel for the next few years – at a cost that is very quickly repaid.
With rising energy costs and the ever increasing prices of public charge points, it makes perfect sense to charge your vehicle at home for free. A typical 4kWp residential solar PV system will produce enough energy to power both your home and charge your electric car.
A solar carport is a dual purpose, stand-alone structure that provides shelter for vehicles, whilst generating clean, renewable energy from the sun. This free electricity can then be used to power your home and charge your electric vehicle.
A carport can be designed to seamlessly blend in with the surrounding environment. They can be customised with LED lighting and equipped with gutters to harvest rain water.
Our carport structures are equipped with reinforced concrete support bases as standard; negating the need for expensive foundations. This simplifies the authorization process, reduces the need for foundation work and ensures your carport can be adapted or repositioned in the future.
Our EV charge points communicate directly with your car, making charging at home much safer.
Charging time is reduced by 30-60% depending on the car, making charging at home much quicker.
No more extension leads or wondering whether you are overloading your home’s electrical supply.
High performance, smart charging with a host of smart enabled services.
