OZEV grant EV charger installation in Cornwall

The Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) runs three main chargepoint grant schemes in 2026, all paying £500 per socket (raised from £350 on 1 April 2026) and covering 75% of supply + install costs:

1. Electric Vehicle Chargepoint Grant for Renters and Flat Owners

  • For people who rent any residential property, or own a flat
  • Must have private off-street or allocated parking
  • One socket per applicant
  • The vehicle must be on the OZEV-approved EV list
  • £500 per socket, 75% of cost, deducted from your installer invoice

2. Electric Vehicle Chargepoint Grant for Residential Landlords

  • For landlords with one or more rental properties
  • Up to 200 sockets across the landlord's portfolio
  • Each property must have dedicated off-street parking
  • £500 per socket, 75% of cost
  • Useful for portfolio landlords future-proofing rental properties

3. Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS)

  • For businesses, charities, public sector
  • Up to 40 sockets per applicant business
  • Premises must have dedicated off-street parking for staff/fleet
  • £500 per socket, 75% of cost
  • See our workplace charging page

Note: Standard owner-occupier homeowners are NOT eligible. The old universal Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme (EVHS) ended in April 2022. If you own and live in a standard house with a driveway, you'll pay the full install cost — typically £800-£1,200 for a 7kW smart charger.

Funding is confirmed to 31 March 2027 — the schemes run for a final year before expected wind-down or replacement. If you're eligible, get the install booked sooner rather than later.

How the grant works in practice: 1. We match you with a vetted local OZEV-approved installer — only authorised installers can claim the grant 2. The installer surveys, confirms eligibility, and applies on your behalf via the OZEV portal 3. OZEV approves before install starts — typically 5-15 working days 4. Installer fits the charger and submits proof of install 5. Grant is paid directly to the installer, who deducts it from your invoice 6. You never see the grant money — it just lowers your bill

Important: Do not install before OZEV approves your application. Pre-approval installs are not eligible — the grant is forfeit if you proceed before authorisation.

OZEV Grant EV Charger Installation FAQs

Everything you need to know about OZEV grant EV charger installation in Cornwall.

From 1 April 2026, the OZEV chargepoint grant pays £500 per socket (raised from £350), covering 75% of combined supply and installation cost. Applications submitted before 1 April 2026 are capped at £350. Funding is confirmed to 31 March 2027.

You're eligible if you're a renter in any residential property, an owner-occupier of a flat, a residential landlord, or a business, charity, or public sector organisation. You're not eligible if you're a standard owner-occupier in a house (the old EVHS scheme that covered this ended in April 2022). All applicants need dedicated off-street parking.

Generally no — commercial holiday lets don't fall under any of the three current OZEV schemes. However, the install is a fully deductible business expense against let income. If you live in the property part-year and let it part-year, talk to your accountant about the FHL classification and whether any portion is allowable. The grant rules are strict on 'dedicated residential use'.

The installer claims on your behalf. Only OZEV-approved installers (which is what 'OZEV-approved' actually means) can submit grant claims. You sign a declaration during the application; the installer submits to OZEV via the official portal; OZEV approves before install starts; grant is paid directly to the installer who deducts it from your invoice. You never handle the money.

You forfeit the grant entirely. The rules are strict — installation must not start until OZEV issues an approval letter. Typical approval time is 5-15 working days. Reputable installers won't book your install until approval is in hand; less reputable ones might, leaving you to pay the full amount. We only match with OZEV-approved installers who follow the rules.

Yes, if you have the freeholder's or head-lease holder's written consent. Long-leasehold landlords are fine; commercial-property leaseholders sometimes face restrictions depending on the lease. For shared driveways or communal-parking installs, you'll need consent from all parties with a legal interest in the parking area.

Common reasons: no dedicated off-street parking, vehicle not on the approved EV list, applicant not eligible (e.g., standard homeowner trying to apply), or supplied documents incomplete. Your installer should pre-check eligibility before submitting; rejections are rare when the install is genuinely eligible. If rejected, you can still proceed with the install at full cost.

Unclear at time of writing. The current schemes are confirmed to 31 March 2027. Government policy on post-2027 EV-charger funding has not been announced. With the 2030 ICE ban now firmly reinstated, some form of continuing support is likely — but the specific scheme structure and grant amount is unknown. Worth installing before March 2027 if you're eligible.
