Workplace Charging Scheme for state-funded education institutions

Grant for state-funded education institutes to provide support towards the costs of the purchase, installation and infrastructure of electric vehicle chargepoints.

This grant is for state-funded schools and education institutions to install electric vehicle chargepoint sockets at their site(s).  

Installations usually cost around £1,500 to £2,500, depending on the area and type of installation.

You can get 75% off the cost to buy and install chargepoints up to a maximum of: 

  • £2,500 per socket 

  • 40 sockets across all sites including any applications made previously via the Workplace Charging Scheme

You will need to confirm that you meet all the criteria in the application form.

Read the rules to make sure you are eligible to apply for the grant.

When you have read this information, you can complete the application form.

Successful applicants will be emailed a voucher code.

Until you receive a unique voucher code, there is no guarantee that you will receive the grant.

You must fill in the whole form. If you do not, your application may be unsuccessful.

All declarations must be completed by the contact person named in the form.

You can make multiple claims up to your allocation of 40 sockets.

The Office for Zero Emissions Vehicles (OZEV) reserves the right to seek further information or documentary evidence from relevant parties in support of any individual claim.

OZEV will run audit checks and if any claim is found to be false, payment will be refused or will have to be repaid.
