The Workplace Charging Scheme has been extended for another year, the government has confirmed.

Now ending 31 March 2026, the Workplace Charging Scheme provides support for organisations towards the cost of installing up to 40 electric vehicle chargepoint sockets at their sites.

The scheme covers up to 75% of the total costs of the purchase and installation of EV chargepoints (including VAT), capped at a maximum of £350 per socket or 40 sockets across all sites per applicant.
