Business grants for commercial EV charger installation.
Your business may be eligible for an EV infrastructure grant. As a SME, there are two government grants for electric car charging points for business that may be available to you.
Alternatively, you could get up to £15,000 towards the cost of EV charger installations and supporting parking space infrastructure from the electric vehicle infrastructure grant for staff and fleets.
These grants can be claimed for the same business premises, but money cannot be claimed from both grants for the same charge point. To qualify for either grant the EV chargers cannot be for customer use, but they can be used by staff or the business.
Please be aware that eligibility criteria will apply, and you may require landlord’s permission if you don’t own the business premises.
Are there any EV charger grants for landlords of commercial properties?
If you are the landlord of a commercial property and would like to install EV charging, you can get support from the electric vehicle chargepoint and infrastructure grants for landlords.
With the EV chargepoint grant you could get £350 towards the cost of installing an EV charging socket, or 75% off, whichever is lower. Each financial year, you can receive this grant up to 200 times for residential properties, and up to 100 times for commercial properties. The grant can be used to install multiple charge points at a single property, or across multiple properties.
The EV infrastructure grant could provide up to £30,000 or 75% off to help cover the costs of the EV charging infrastructure required for multiple charge points (such as posts and wiring). You can receive the grant up to 30 times per financial year, but they must each be used on different properties. Please note that eligibility criteria will apply.
Frequently asked questions about commercial EV chargers.
Do I need a smart meter to have a commercial EV charger?
Smart meters are not required to install an EV charging station. However, you may find they are required to be eligible for certain tariffs.
If you haven’t upgraded yet, check out the benefits of smart meters for your business.
I lease my business premises, can I still get an EV charger?
Yes, but you will need your landlord’s permission for the EV charger installation to take place.
Alternatively, if you are a tenant, your landlord may be eligible to receive grants for the installations and wish to carry them out at their own cost.
What’s included in an EV charger quote for your small or medium business?
The price of your EV charger quote includes the EV charging unit, standard installation, and a 3 year maintenance package. Plus, you will be guided through the process from booking to installation by your own personal account manager.

The legal bit.
1 In a 2022 analysis of vehicles across Europe, EVs were found to have significantly lower lifetime carbon emissions compared to petrol vehicles, with the worst case battery electric vehicle (BEV) still producing 37% less CO2 than an equivalent petrol car.
2 This is an estimated figure based on 7.4 kW EV charger delivering up to 7.4 kilowatts of power to an electric vehicle for a 1 hour charging period, enabling the electric vehicle to travel approximately 30 miles.
3 Charging times are based on charging a single vehicle, with vehicle state of charge going from 20% to 80%. If charging multiple vehicles at once using an Ultrafast EV charger the charge time will be affected. The Alpitronic hyper charger 300 model can charge up to three cars from one charger, on the 300 kW, but will take longer to charge at 75 kW per car. The E.ON Booster can charge two cars at the same time, but with charge at 75 kW if two cars are charging.
