Workplace Charging Scheme Extended: A Smart Investment for Your Business

March 10, 2025

The UK Government has extended the Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS), providing businesses, charities, and public sector organisations with financial support to install EV chargepoints at their premises. This extension, now running until 31 March 2026, offers a valuable opportunity for organisations to future-proof their sites and support their employees in making the switch to electric vehicles.

What Does the Scheme Offer?

The WCS covers up to 75% of the total costs of purchasing and installing EV chargepoints, capped at:

  • £350 per socket
  • Up to 40 sockets per organisation across multiple sites

This funding is available to eligible businesses, charities, public sector organisations, and small accommodation businesses in England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

Why Consider Workplace Charging?

With the 2030 ICE vehicle phase-out approaching, businesses that provide EV charging will support their employees while demonstrating environmental leadership. The scheme offers significant savings and allows employers to install chargepoints both at workplace premises and, in some cases, at employees’ homes for company vehicles.

Who Is Eligible?

Your organisation may be eligible if:

  • You own or have permission to install chargepoints at your site.
  • The site has dedicated off-road parking.
  • The chargepoints are primarily for staff or fleet use.

Charities, public authorities, and small accommodation businesses can make their chargepoints available for public use if desired.

Why Act Now?

Demand for EV infrastructure is growing, and this grant makes the transition more affordable. With government funding confirmed until March 2026, there’s no better time to future-proof your workplace.
