Workplace Charging Scheme — up to £14,000 for your business
The OZEV Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS) is a government grant currently offering £350 per socket, up to 40 sockets per business — that's up to £14,000 in grant funding per business.
To qualify:
- Be a registered UK business, charity or public sector organisation
- Have dedicated off-street parking
- Use an OZEV-approved installer (we are)
- Install OZEV-approved charge points (we install only approved hardware)
We handle the entire WCS application on your behalf — voucher claim, evidence pack and submission. Most clients receive their grant within 4-6 weeks of installation.
Charger options for commercial use
| Charger | Speed | Best for |

| OHME Pro | 7.4 kW | Smart-tariff aware workplaces |

All chargers we install are OCPP 1.6 or 2.0 compatible — you're not locked into a single management platform.
The commercial install process
- Site survey — we visit, look at parking layout, electrical supply, cable runs and DNO capacity
- Load assessment — calculate maximum simultaneous load, decide if load balancing or supply upgrade is needed
- DNO application (if needed) — most installs over 3 chargers need DNO sign-off; we handle this
- Installation — typically 1-3 days depending on size; minimal disruption to business operations
- Commissioning & testing — full electrical test, functional test of every socket
- WCS grant claim — we submit on your behalf
- 12-month support — included with every commercial install
Fleet depot & high-volume charging
For fleet operators we install:
- OCPP-compatible management software — track usage per vehicle, per driver, per cost centre
- Smart load balancing — share available grid capacity dynamically across chargers, avoiding expensive DNO upgrades
- Cost-per-mile reporting — automatic monthly reports for finance and fleet management
- RFID access control — only authorised drivers can charge; integration with HR systems
- Tariff scheduling — charge overnight on commercial off-peak tariffs only
Solar + commercial EV — the cost-killer combo
Pairing your commercial solar installation with workplace EV chargepoints is the single most cost-effective fleet energy decision available in 2026:
- Generated solar that would otherwise be exported at SEG rate (~6-15p/kWh) instead charges your fleet at near-zero marginal cost
- Your fleet running cost-per-mile drops to typically 2-4p/mile vs. 12-18p/mile on grid power
- Excess generation still exported at SEG rate — solar is never wasted
We can quote both as a combined project — single survey, single project manager, one invoice.
Planning & DNO
We handle all planning and DNO paperwork for commercial installs:
- Planning permission: rarely required for car park chargers under permitted development rights. Listed buildings and conservation areas are exceptions.
- DNO application: required for most installs over 3 chargers or where the cumulative load exceeds your existing supply. Typical response time 6-8 weeks for larger applications. We submit and chase on your behalf.
- Building Control: Part P notification handled for all installs.
