Landlords and housing associations will also be eligible for OZEV grand funding; £350 per socket (units that are equipped with two sockets will be eligible for £700 grant funding per unit). A maximum of 200 grant funding applications can be made per year. Although there are no limits on the number of sockets per property, the charging units must be installed across private parking spaces.

To qualify for the OZEV Grant, you need to have purchased an eligible electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle from 1st October 2016 onwards.

Tip: Save nearly £1,000 a year in fuel costs a year with a home charging point (instead of relying on public charging facilities).
