What Is the OZEV EV Charger Grant?

The OZEV EV Charger Grant is a government-backed scheme designed to reduce the cost of installing an electric vehicle chargepoint at your property. It’s managed by the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles and supports households, landlords, and businesses looking to install EV charging.

The grant is applied directly through an approved installer, meaning you don’t receive the money separately. Instead, the cost is reduced upfront, making it easier to install a charger without covering the full amount yourself.

To qualify, your installation must be completed by an OZEV approved installer, such as Elite Energy, and meet specific property and vehicle requirements.

How Much Can You Save?

  • Up to £500 per chargepoint installed

  • Covers up to 75% of the total installation cost

  • Available until 31 March 2027

  • Applied directly to your quote – you only pay the reduced amount

Who Is Eligible for the OZEV Grant?

The OZEV EV Charger Grant is aimed at specific property types and living situations, so eligibility depends on how your home is set up, rather than just owning an electric vehicle.

You May Qualify If:

  • You own and live in a flat

  • You rent your home (including shared ownership)

  • You have access to private off-street parking, or an approved on-street solution

  • You own, lease, or have ordered an eligible electric vehicle

  • Your installation is carried out by an OZEV approved installer

You May Not Be Eligible If:

  • You own a house (not a flat)

  • You are a lodger living with a landlord

  • You have already claimed a previous EV charger grant

  • Your property is a new build where a charger is already required by law

Not Sure If You Qualify?

Eligibility isn’t always obvious, especially with factors like parking setup or property type.

At Elite Energy, we’ll check everything for you upfront and confirm whether the grant applies to your situation, so you don’t waste time applying for something you’re not eligible for.

Available EV Charger Grants

Gov grants for EV Chargers are available for a range of situations, including renters, flat owners, properties with on-street parking, businesses, landlords, and educational institutions.
