When purchasing an electric vehicle you can receive a grant of up to £3,000. On top of this electric vehicles are exempt from paying the basic rate of VED, which saves drivers £145 per year.

There is a range of charging options available for electric vehicles including accelerated, domestic and rapid, each with varied charging times and capabilities. There are many charging stations located around the UK which can be operated by registering with the network, downloading the networks app and some now have card payments built in.
Accelerated charging was specifically designed for electric vehicles. It’s faster to charge than using a domestic plug. With power levels commonly at 7kW, your vehicle would fully charge in 7.5 hours.
Domestic charging uses a standard household 3 pin socket. This method of charging can take 22 hours from a typical domestic household and can be risky if the socket has not been properly checked. Therefore we would always recommend that you have any socket you plan to charge from checked for suitability by a certified electrician.
Rapid charging uses direct currents to charge the battery quickly. They charge the first 80% as fast and efficiently as possible and then stop or slow down charging for the final 20%."
Fully electric vehicles produce 0g of CO2 emissions and produce no greenhouse gasses.
Rapid charge points allow you to charge the battery up to 80% in 30 minutes.
