EV grants for landlords: Everything you need to know



Residential and commercial landlords are now able to claim funding for buying and installing EV chargepoints in rental and leasehold properties.


Residential landlords are now also able to claim 200 grants per year, each worth 75% of the cost of purchase and installation – up to £350.


The new grant replaces the old EVHS scheme and will run until 2024. It’s open to all relevant landlords across UK and Ireland.


To find out all you need to know about the new grant and how you can take advantage of it, check out the information below.

You can apply if you are one of the following:

  • landlord with property that they let

  • property factor in Scotland

Residential landlords can claim up to 200 grants per financial year, while commercial landlords can claim up to 100.


How can I apply?


To apply just fill in the registration form and send it to landlordaccounts@dvla.co.uk.If you are eligible, you will be given a landlord registration number. You can then choose an OZEV-approved installer to work with who will apply for the grant on your behalf.
