Why You Should Install a Home EV Charger in 2026

Electric vehicles are no longer the future — they are the present. With falling battery prices, better range, and strong government incentives, more homeowners in Surrey and across the UK are making the switch. Installing a dedicated home EV charger is one of the smartest upgrades you can make this year.

2026 Update: The UK Government is continuing the Electric Vehicle Chargepoint Grant, and new smart charging tariffs make home charging even more affordable than ever before.

Why Home Charging Beats Public Chargers

What Type of Charger Should You Choose?

We recommend 7kW wall chargers for most homes. They offer the perfect balance between speed and cost. For larger homes or those with multiple EVs, we also install 11kW and 22kW three-phase chargers.
