We’ve shared a guide explaining the infrastructure grant to help SMES with the costs for EV charging installation. 

Electric vehicle infrastructure grant for staff and fleets

The infrastructure grant helps small and medium-sized businesses with the cost of installing electric vehicle charge points at their site for staff and fleet vehicles. It enables businesses to install multiple chargepoints with a minimum of five spaces. 

 

The EV infrastructure grant can cover installation now and in the future, supporting the socket and wiring installation. 

 

This grant covers 75% of the installation cost, up to £15,000, including:

  • up to £350 per chargepoint socket installed
  • up to £500 per parking space enabled with supporting infrastructure

Who is eligible for the grant?

  • SMES with fewer than 250 employees
  • Minimum of 5 off-street parking spaces
  • Chargers applicable for staff or fleet use (not public charging)

You can receive up to 5 grants across 5 different sites. This grant cannot be used alongside the Workplace Charging Scheme grant.

Apply for the grant.
