Your Complete Guide to the OZEV Grant Scheme and How to Claim It

Thinking of switching to an electric vehicle and installing a home or workplace charger? The UK government’s OZEV grant makes it easier and more affordable — and Electric11 is proud to be one of Norfolk’s authorised installers. Here’s everything you need to know.

What Is the OZEV Grant Scheme?

The Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) offers financial support to help cover the cost of installing EV charge points. The EV ChargePoint Grant provides up to £350 or 75% of the installation cost — whichever is lower — for eligible applicants. It’s part of the UK’s push toward cleaner, greener transport.

Who Is Eligible?

You may qualify for the OZEV grant if you meet any of the following criteria:

• A renter or flat owner with dedicated off-street parking
• A landlord installing chargers for tenants
• A business or fleet operator installing workplace chargers

However, homeowners of single-unit houses are no longer eligible for this grant.

How Do I Know If I’m Eligible?

To determine your eligibility, here are the key points to review:

• First, confirm your property type (flat, rental, or business)
• Next, ensure you have dedicated off-street parking
• Finally, check that you own or lease an eligible electric vehicle (full battery EVs or plug-in hybrids with CO₂ emissions under 50g/km)

You can view the full eligibility criteria and approved vehicle list on the UK government’s OZEV guidance page.

How Do I Apply for the Grant?

The application process is straightforward — and the good news is, your installer will guide you through each step.

Here’s how it works:

1. Get Your Quote
Contact Electric11 for a quote for your eligible EV chargepoint installation.

2. Apply for the Grant
Check your eligibility and complete the OZEV application, including Electric11’s installer details.

3. Get Approved & Book Your Installation
Once OZEV confirms your eligibility to both you and Electric11, we’ll arrange your installation and submit the grant claim after the work is completed.

You can learn more and begin the process at the official OZEV grant portal.
