For businesses that have employees, customers and even company vehicles that are electric, investing in EV charger installation ensures that they will always be ready to go. It also adds to the ‘green incentive’ and opens up a means of unique promotion.
Electric vehicles are becoming more and more popular. This is only likely to accelerate following the UK government’s recent confirmation that it will be banning the sale of petrol and diesel vehicles by 2030.
You can currently apply for a grant through the Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme (EVHS), which offers up to £350 for electrical car charger installations for your home. As an Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) approved installer, Sol-Lux Electrical Services has been approved to carry out these works for you, allowing you to participate in the scheme.
When working with Sol-Lux Electrical to install your EV charger, our engineers will complete a free survey of your property to establish the best option for you. From here, the team will arrange a time and day to install your EV charger, minimising disturbance and maximising efficiency.
When deciding on which EV charger is best for you, it is first important to familiarise yourself with the types of charging points. There are two main types of charger, fast and slow chargers. When compared to a rapid charger, a slow charger can take anywhere between 6 and 12 hours to charge, making it perfect for overnight charging. If you are unsure which charger is best for your home and your usage, this can be discussed during the home survey. Additionally, you can use our free electrical advice service to ask any questions you may have.
By entrusting Sol-Lux Electrical to complete your EV charger installation, you are choosing a NICEIC approved contractor. This means that we work to the highest possible standards and are constantly assessed on our workmanship, knowledge and processes within the office side of the contractors. This gives you peace of mind that your installation will be smooth and hassle-free. We also ensure that as well as quality installation, your installation will be tailored to your requirements helping to provide minimal disruption whilst works are carried out.
Additionally we are OLEV approved, which means you may be entitled to a £350 discount on the EV charger installation. This grant can only be accessed by OLEV approved contractors.
