Why Charge Your EV at Home?
Home charging is by far the most convenient and cost-effective way to keep your electric vehicle topped up. Rather than planning trips to public charging stations and paying premium rates of 60-80p per kWh, you can plug in when you arrive home and wake up to a fully charged car every morning. Home charging on a standard electricity tariff costs around 7-10p per kWh on an overnight rate, which translates to just 2-3p per mile driven.
A dedicated home EV charger is significantly faster and safer than using a standard 3-pin plug. A 7 kW home charger fully charges most electric cars in 6-8 hours overnight, compared to 20+ hours from a domestic socket. Dedicated chargers also include important safety features such as residual current protection, temperature monitoring, and weatherproof enclosures that a standard plug simply cannot provide.
EV adoption is accelerating: there are now approximately 1.97 million pure battery electric vehicles on UK roads (March 2026), with new BEV registrations hitting a record 23.4% market share in 2025. The ZEV Mandate requires 33% of new car sales to be zero emission in 2026, rising to 100% by 2035. Installing a home charger now adds value to your property and ensures you are ready — estate agents report EV charging is increasingly a buyer priority across South Yorkshire.
Solar-Powered EV Charging
Pairing a smart EV charger with solar panels is one of the most intelligent energy decisions a homeowner can make. A solar-integrated EV charger automatically diverts surplus solar energy to your car, meaning you can charge your vehicle for absolutely nothing. On a typical sunny day, a 10-panel solar system generates enough surplus energy to add 30-50 miles of range to your EV, covering the average UK daily commute entirely with free solar electricity.
Smart chargers with solar diverter functionality monitor your solar generation in real time and adjust the charging speed to match the available surplus. When the sun is shining and your home appliances are not using all the electricity your panels are producing, the excess flows into your car instead of being exported to the grid for a few pence. The charger automatically pauses if a cloud passes over or household demand increases, then resumes when surplus energy is available again.
Add a battery storage system to the mix and you have the ultimate home energy ecosystem. Store solar energy during the day, power your home in the evening from the battery, and charge your EV overnight from stored solar energy or cheap off-peak grid electricity. The result is near-zero energy bills for both your home and your car.

We install a range of EV chargers to suit different needs, from basic home charging points to advanced smart chargers with solar integration and commercial multi-bay solutions.
7 kW Smart Chargers
The standard and most popular choice for home EV charging. A 7 kW charger is the fastest single-phase charger available and fully charges most electric cars in 6-8 hours overnight. Smart features include app control, scheduled charging to take advantage of off-peak tariffs, energy usage monitoring, and solar integration capability. Compatible with all electric vehicles.
Best for: Most homes | From £800 installed
Solar-Integrated Chargers
Designed specifically for homes with solar panels, these chargers feature built-in solar diverter technology that automatically uses surplus solar energy to charge your EV. They switch between solar-only charging, mixed solar and grid charging, and full grid charging depending on available solar generation. The Sigenergy system combines battery storage and EV charging in a single unit for the ultimate integrated solution.
Best for: Homes with solar panels | From £1,000 installed
22 kW Commercial Chargers
For businesses, workplaces, and properties with three-phase electricity supply, 22 kW chargers offer significantly faster charging speeds. They can add 100 miles of range in just 1-2 hours, making them ideal for employee parking, customer charging at retail premises, fleet vehicles, and hospitality businesses. We also install multi-bay commercial charging solutions for car parks and business premises.

UK EV Adoption — The Numbers
Electric vehicle uptake in the UK is accelerating rapidly, driven by the ZEV Mandate and falling purchase costs.
| Charging Method | Cost/kWh | Cost per Mile | Annual Cost (10k miles) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Home (standard ~24.5p/kWh) | 24.5p | 5–7p | £500–£700 |
| Home (off-peak EV tariff ~7.5p) | 7–9p | 2–3p | £200–£350 |
| Home (solar surplus) | ~0p | 1–2p | £100–£200 |
| Public rapid (50 kW+) | ~76p | ~23p | ~£2,300 |
| Petrol (40 MPG equivalent) | n/a | 14–21p | £1,500–£2,000 |
Home off-peak EV charging is approximately 90% cheaper per mile than petrol. A dedicated home charger typically pays for itself vs public charging in under 18 months.
Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS)
The UK government's Workplace Charging Scheme has been extended until 31 March 2027. Eligible organisations can claim up to £350–£500 per socket (maximum 40 sockets) toward the purchase and installation of EV chargepoints at their premises.
Eligible applicants include businesses, charities, and public sector organisations. Education institutions benefit from an enhanced grant of up to £2,000 per socket. The scheme covers both the chargepoint unit and installation costs.
Combined with commercial solar panels, workplace EV chargers powered by your own solar energy dramatically reduce running costs and demonstrate your environmental commitment to employees and customers.
