Powering your transition to sustainable transportation. Navigate the road to Net Zero with electric vehicles and EV charging infrastructure.
Electric Vehicle sales in the UK grew by 186% in 2020 and made up around 15% of new vehicle registrations. Government plans to end the sale of conventional petrol and diesel combustion vehicles by 2030, means this trend is only set to continue.
The growth in EV sales in 2020 was largely down to company vehicles, with twice as many new electric vehicles registered to businesses as to private buyers. Benefit-In-Kind (BIK) tax relief for electric company and fleet vehicles at only 1%, helped to incentivise this uptake.
As of 2024, the Benefit-in-Kind (BIK) tax rate for electric vehicles (EVs) in the UK is set at 2% and will remain at this rate until the end of the 2024/25 tax year. After that, the rate will increase incrementally by 1% each year: reaching 3% in 2025/26, 4% in 2026/27, and capping at 5% in 2027/28
The increase in electric vehicles on the road has created a real need to roll out sufficient EV charging infrastructure solutions nationwide, to support the extra demand.
As well as the BIK tax incentives, the Office of Zero Emissions Vehicles (OZEV) offers a charging grant, that can provide up to £350 per socket towards the cost of installation, up to a maximum of 40 sockets (£14k).
There are numerous considerations when choosing an electric vehicle charging solution. The output of the charger is key to determining the speed at which the vehicle can charge. EV chargers range from ‘slow’ 3.6kW AC home chargers, up to ‘rapid’ 350kW DC chargers, that can be found at some motorway service stations.
Not all electric vehicles are able to support higher output chargers and there are other factors such as metering maximum demand and the supply capacity availability from your DNO, which will determine the most suitable type of EV charger for you.
We work with several EV charging providers, accredited installers and can evaluate the best solutions for installation, operation, maintenance, and warranty to suit your requirements. From feasibility studies to project management and ongoing support, we consider every variable to ensure you get the best solutions, service and value for your business.
