Government Boosts Home EV Charger Grants — What Buyers Need to Know

The UK’s home electric vehicle charger grant has just increased — and this could reduce the cost of switching to electric faster than you think.

From 1 April, the OZEV home charger grant rises from £350 per socket to up to £500 per socket — putting more of the installation cost back in your pocket.

Who can benefit?

• Homeowners with off-street parking

• Workplace and business locations

• Flats or tenanted properties (with landlord approval)

That means a lower total cost of ownership for used EV buyers on top of the savings you already get from running electric:

• Lower fuel costs

• Reduced servicing bills

• Zero congestion charge (where applicable)

• No petrol station queues

At Woodson Cars, we help you make sense of the entire switch to electric — not just the car:

• Explain how the home charger grant works

• Point you to trusted local installers

• Integrate charging costs into your car finance plan

• Answer questions about range, warranty and running costs

The grant boost isn’t just good news — it’s a practical reason to consider EV ownership sooner rather than later.

If you want to know how this affects your situation, we’ll talk through it with full transparency.
