Electric car charger grants expire at the end of March 2022

Electric car charger grants expire at the end of March 2022

If you own an electric car and are thinking of installing a home charger, you only have a few weeks left to claim your government grant. The deadline is March 31st, 2022, after which you will have to pay the full amount out of your own pocket. The Ele ctric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme enables electric car owners to claim up to a maximum of 75% (which is capped at £350) off the cost of a charging point and installation.

To be eligible, you need to own a qualifying vehicle and have appropriate off-street parking. You can find the full list of eligible vehicles on the government website here.

Last chance single unit properties

If you own a detached, semi-detached, terraced or bungalow property, you will no longer be able to claim the grant after April 1st. There will be a big, last-minute rush as people search for qualified installation firms, so the sooner you schedule a quote, the more likely it is that you will be able to use the discount. Flat owners will still be able to claim the grant after April 1st, 2022, as will anyone living in rented accommodation. The cost of installing a charge point varies, depending on the model you buy and the company carrying out the service, but it generally costs somewhere between £500 and £1,000. Any third-party permission that is needed for the work, such as from a managing agent or a freeholder, must be obtained before any work is carried out. So be sure to take this into account before you commit to an installation.

Why should you install an electric car charger?

Installing an electric car charger offers a number of benefits, such as:

  • You’ll enjoy lower running costs compared to using public access points
  • A home charger is much more convenient and can fully charge your car in less time
  • Using a home charging point could be better for your battery, extending its lifespan
  • Your property value could increase your property value as it is not a common feature
