Commercial EV Charging
Transition your business to an electric future.
The OLEV Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS) grant, gives businesses the ability to reduce the cost of their Workplace or Fleet charging points by up to £350 per socket (up to 40 sockets).
Background
As of April 2020, the Benefit-in-Kind tax rate for full battery electric vehicles was reduced to 0% for tax year 2020-21, translating to significant cost savings for company car drivers who choose a pure electric vehicle.
New Rules For Workplaces And Commercial Properties
Under the new rules as of April 1st, 2022, the WCS (Workplace Charging Scheme) grant is available not only to workplaces and commercial premises but also to:
- SMEs
- Small accommodation businesses
- B&Bs
- Charities
- Commercially let premises owners
- This will open up the opportunity for more businesses to claim up to £350 of the cost of each charge point installation. The OZEV changes will, for instance, allow the owner of a small accommodation business to claim funding for charge points that are available for guests. Whereas previously, they could only receive funding for charge points being used by staff.
