What Is The OLEV Grant?
The Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) is part of the UK Departments of Transport, Trade, Energy and Industrial Strategy. The OLEV is offering funding schemes to support and encourage the installations of EV charging infrastructure across the UK. This takes the form of grants which help cover the installation costs. Applegarth Engineering is an approved installer and can apply for the funding for clients. We currently install EV chargers in Buckley and North Wales under the following grants:
- Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme

Electric Vehicle Home Charge Scheme

Workplace Charge Point Scheme
A Commercial OLEV Grant is available for business, charities and public authorities. Charging points can be installed in off-street parking areas by an approved installer such as ourselves.
On-Street Residential Charge Point scheme
The on-street residential charge point scheme provides grant funding for local authorities, towards the cost of installing on-street residential EV Chargers, where off-street parking is not available for residents.
Benefits Of An EV Charge Point
Charge Quicker
In domestic situations, you can charge you electric vehicle using a standard household 13amp plug. This method of charging can be incredible slow, with overnight charging the only option. By installing a dedicated EV charging point you can charge your electric vehicle up to 60% faster! Our engineers access the 240V electricity supply at your property, to increase charging speeds.
Be Safer
Without a professionally installed EV charge point, charging electric vehicles using a standard 13amp socket can be a hazard. The cable needed to reach the wall sockets can be a hazard. A dedicated EV charge point makes charging your electric vehicle safer, with less cable clutter. Our engineers can install an EV charger with easy access to your electric vehicle, making it quicker and more convenient to charge.
