Electric Vehicle Chargepoint and Infrastructure Grants for Landlords

Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming a more popular transportation option in the UK. To be able to use their EVs efficiently though, it’s a must for owners to find a space where they can charge their vehicles when not in use. This situation presents landlords with the opportunity to stay ahead of the curve by installing EV charging stations across their residential and commercial properties.

Through the Electric Vehicle Chargepoint and Infrastructure Grants, landlords can benefit from financial aid to install both charging stations and the infrastructure required to support them. These grants aim to reduce the cost of installing EV chargers and ensure properties are ready for the shift towards electric mobility. Whether you own residential or commercial property, these grants provide a great opportunity to make your property more attractive to tenants and future-proof it against upcoming changes in how we fuel our vehicles.
