Electrical vehicle car charging points for business
Supplying your employees with electric vehicles is a cost-effective way of offering company cars as charging units are inexpensive to run and require minimal servicing. Providing electric company cars is a great way of demonstrating your environmental credentials to clients. It is also a move worth considering as you plan for the future as the government continues to place pressure on businesses to become more environmentally friendly.
For a business offering its employees electric company cars, the installation of charging points is essential. Our accredited and approved engineers can help you to fit your new charging points and can install multiple EV chargers in one visit to minimise downtime for your business.

Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS)
The Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS) is a government-funded initiative available for eligible businesses to partially cover the upfront costs of purchasing and installing EV chargers. The scheme is voucher-based, and you can apply using the application form that is provided on the government website.
However, it must be noted that if you choose to take part in this scheme, you are expected to use approved charging points, the full list of which is available on the government website. We are able to install many of the charging points on the approved list, including all of those shown in the section below.
Types of EV chargers
Rapid
Rapid chargers can be found at motorway service stations and other public locations due to their fast-charging capabilities. The best example of a rapid charging unit is the Tesla Super Charger, which is designed to completely charge your vehicle in as little as 20 minutes.
Fast
It is possible for fast chargers to be installed on your commercial premises, which will allow your staff to charge their vehicle in a few hours while they are at work. The time it will take for a full charge will depend on the vehicle and the rating of the charging point.
Slow
Slow chargers take anywhere between 6 and 12 hours to charge an EV, making them most popular amongst those who prefer to charge their vehicle overnight. For this reason, slow chargers are less likely to be used for commercial properties.

We work with a range of EV charging brands. Contact our team to discuss charger options for your site and the vehicles you need to charge.
