The biggest factor in EV charger pricing is how far the cable has to travel from your consumer unit, and whether a cross-pavement channel is needed for on-street parking.
| Installation Type | Typical Price |
|---|---|
| Standard driveway, short cable run | From £850 |
| Longer run / cable chasing needed | £950 – £1,200 |
| Cross-pavement, no driveway | £1,200 – £1,800+ |
The Grant, in Real Numbers
As of April 2026, the OZEV grant covers 75% of installation cost up to £500 per socket, for on-street parking, renters and flat owners, and residential landlords. On an £850 standard install, that can bring your net cost down to roughly £350 — the exact amount depends on OZEV approval and your specific circumstances, so treat this as illustrative rather than guaranteed.
What's Included
Supply and installation of an OZEV-approved chargepoint, a dedicated circuit back to the consumer unit, RCD protection, full testing, and certification. For cross-pavement installs, we also handle the council permission application as part of the job.
