Save £350 with OZEV funding

We’re on a mission to bring affordable EV charging to homes across the UK, but did you know that you could be entitled to a further £350 off the cost of your Cord EV charger if you own or rent a flat, or live in a rental property?

Additionally, if you own or rent your property, and only have on-street parking, you could also be entitled to a £350 Grant.

With the OZEV grant - also known as the EV charge point grant - the government is helping owners or renters of flats to join the home charging revolution with more affordable costs! All you need to do is meet three simple criteria:

  • Live in a flat that you own or rent, or a rental property.
  • Have a private, off-street parking space allocated to the flat.
  • Own an eligible electric vehicle.

If you have on-street parking only, you need to meet the following criteria: 

  • Own or rent a residential property in which you live.
  • Have adequate on-street parking as defined by your local council.
  • Have permission from your local council to install a cross-pavement charging solution between your home and the approved parking space.
  • Will install a cross-pavement charging solution before having your chargepoint installed.
  • Own an eligible vehicle.
