CTEK has welcomed the UK government’s decision to increase the value of EV chargepoint grants and extend several schemes aimed at supporting electric vehicle infrastructure.

The maximum grant available has increased from £350 to £500, with several schemes extended for a final year until 31 March 2027. The funding is available to support installations for flat owners and renters, residential landlords, households with off-street parking and employers providing workplace charging.

Viktors Nikolajevs, UK Key Account Manager at CTEK, said: “The increase in the maximum grant from £350 to £500 is a very welcome added incentive to flat owners and renters, residential landlords, households with off-street parking and employers with workplace parking.

“They all have until 31 March 2027 to apply for the increased amount. Although the maximum grant for state-funded education institutions is decreasing, there will still be up to £2,000 per socket available until the end of March next year.”

The government’s Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) is also introducing a new application portal for grants covering flats, renters and residential properties, allowing customers to apply directly.
