Do you qualify for the OLEV homecharge grant?
What is the OLEV homecharge grant?
The Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme (‘EVHS’ or OLEV grant) offers EV drivers £350 off the total cost and installation of a qualifying smart home charger. It’s available for the vast majority of vehicles but please note – you can only claim one charge point per eligible vehicle and up to two per household.
What is a smart charge point?
A smart Charge Point is able to be remotely accessed and capable of receiving, interpreting and reacting to a signal. Smart charging can reduce high peaks of electricity demands, minimising the cost of electric vehicles to the electricity system and keeping costs down for EV drivers by encouraging off-peak and efficient charging.

To qualify, you must have the following:
- Off-street parking
- Your charger must use smart technology
- Your charger must be installed by an OLEV approved installer
- Your plug-in vehicle was purchased after 1st October 2016

Once qualified, the full grant amount will be deducted from the total cost of your home charger installation.
