Throughout Shropshire there is a growing number of electric cars appearing on the road, as drivers and businesses continue to transition from vehicles with traditional combustion engines to the more environmentally friendly electric car. The increasing number of electric cars on the road has led to a demand for EV charger infrastructure in Oswestry.

OLEV Grant
To encourage people to adopt electric vehicles the government introduced a grant for EV Chargers, which is provided by the office for low emission vehicles.
The grant available for home owners is sometimes referred to as the ‘Electric Vehicles Home Charge Scheme’. The grant allows up to 75% of the cost of the supply and installation of an EV Charger, up to the cost of £500 for a single point charger. To qualify for the grant, you must have an eligible vehicle, have off street parking and be the registered owner or leaseholder of the vehicle. The charger must also be installed by an OLEV accredited installer and be placed no further than 10m away from the electric distribution board.
The grant available for businesses is sometimes called the ‘Workplace Charge Point Scheme’. The scheme allows up to the cost of £300 per charge point for a maximum of 20 EV Chargers.
