Overview

The grant provides electric vehicle (EV) drivers with support towards the costs of the purchase and installation of EV chargepoints at residential properties if they are also installing a cross-pavement charging solution (e.g. a cable channel).You can get 75% off the cost to buy and install a socket, up to a maximum of £500. 

You can apply for this grant if you: 

  • Have not already installed your chargepoint (as this grant cannot be backdated) 

  • Own or rent a residential property in which you live 

  • Will install a cross-pavement charging solution alongside the chargepoint (for you to be eligible for this grant the cross-pavement solution must not be a temporary solution, such as cable covers or mats which can be placed on top of a cable) 

  • Do not have private and exclusive access to off-street parking such as a driveway, garage or residential car park 

  • Have adequate on-street parking  

  • Have permission from your local highways authority for the installation of the cross-pavement charging solution. You must also declare in your application that you will obtain planning permissions as required by your local planning authority 

  • Own or are responsible for an eligible vehicle 

Your property must be located in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland. If your property is in the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man, it is not eligible. 

Eligibility

This grant supports the cost of purchasing and installing EV chargepoints at residential properties, but only when a cross-pavement charging solution (such as a permanent cable channel) is also installed. Temporary solutions like mats or cable covers are not eligible.

You must obtain all necessary approvals before applying and installing:

  • Local highways authority consent for any cross-pavement works
  • Planning permission from your local planning authority if required
  • Any third-party permission (e.g. landlord, freeholder, or managing agent)
  • In some cases, private landowners managing the road may also need to approve works

 

You must not install anything on public roads yourself, and approval depends on your local authority.

  • You must rely on on-street parking near your home
  • The parking must be legal, safe, and not obstruct traffic or pedestrians
  • You cannot claim if you already have private off-street parking (driveway, garage, or dedicated residential car park)
  • The grant does not guarantee you a parking space or exclusive use of one

How to apply

To apply for the grant, you must first obtain any necessary third-party permissions (such as from a landlord, freeholder, managing agent, or private road owner).

You then need to:

  • Contact an OZEV-approved installer for a quote
  • Contact your local highways authority to get consent for the cross-pavement installation
  • Confirm that you will obtain any required planning permission

Next, you complete the online application form via the government portal, creating an account if needed, and submit your details along with evidence of highways consent.

If you are eligible:

  • You will receive an email confirming approval
  • This includes the grant terms and conditions and installation instructions for you and your installer

After installation:

  • Your installer completes the chargepoint and cross-pavement works
  • They submit a claim on your behalf with photos, documentation, and an invoice showing the grant already deducted
  • The installer must deduct the grant from the total cost before submitting the claim


Once approved, OZEV pays the grant directly to us.
