Could/should the OLEV EV charging point grant be scrapped?

Could/should the OLEV EV charging point grant be scrapped?


With the potential financial situation the country is facing could/should the OLEV EV charging point grant be scrapped? Given the level of debt the government is racking up it seems an appropriate time to say that actually people buying cars should cover the associated costs themselves without a subsidy.


If the grants are scrapped I think it would be a huge incentive for more electricians to become involved in installing EV charging points.

  • Add in the fact that the grant claim application takes longer to do than each installation. Because of all the paperwork, photos and form faffing.

    And you'll have to wait at least 3-4 months for your first payment if you've managed to correctly complete the grant claim form.

    BTW its 3 strikes and you're out!

    I speak from experience. LOL.

    Completed 2 installs November and December last year still not been paid.

    I've followed your Mrs advice Barge pole etc...
