Charge Your EV at Home with Lemac Power's 7kW Charger – Get Funding with EST and OZEV

As electric vehicles (EVs) become more popular, the convenience of home charging is becoming essential for EV owners. At Lemac Power, we are proud to offer a reliable and efficient 7kW EV charger designed for home installation, giving you the power to charge your vehicle from the comfort of your driveway. But did you know that, on top of the convenience, you can also get financial help to install your charger? Scottish homeowners can benefit from both the Energy Saving Trust (EST) Domestic Charge Point Funding and the OZEV (Office for Zero Emission Vehicles) Chargepoint Grant for renters and flat owners, making the installation of an EV charger more affordable than ever.

 Why Choose Lemac Power’s 7kW EV Charger?

Fast and Efficient: The 7kW power output ensures your car charges faster than a standard 3-pin plug, adding up to 30 miles of range per hour.
Smart Features: Schedule charging to make the most of off-peak electricity tariffs and reduce your overall energy costs.
Compatible with All EVs: Our charger works with any make and model of electric vehicle, giving you the flexibility to switch cars without needing a new charger.
Sleek Design: The compact, modern design will complement any home’s exterior.

How the Energy Saving Trust Can Help

For those living in Scotland, the Energy Saving Trust (EST) offers a fantastic opportunity to make home charging even more affordable. This funding provides up to £400 to cover part of the cost of purchasing and installing a home charger.

What About the OZEV Grant?

If you're a renter or flat owner in the UK, the OZEV Electric Vehicle Chargepoint Grant is available to help with the cost of installing a home EV charger. This grant offers up to 75% of the total cost of the purchase and installation, with a maximum of £350 available per installation. It's a great way to make the move to greener, more cost-effective driving without the heavy upfront costs.

The OZEV grant is designed specifically for:

- Renters living in flats or single-use properties and Leaseholders or freeholders of a flat

How to Claim Both EST and OZEV Funding

By combining EST funding with the OZEV grant, you can significantly reduce the cost of installing a home EV charger. Here’s how you can benefit from both:

1. Check Your Eligibility:  For EST funding, you must be a Scottish resident and own an EV or have one on order. For the OZEV grant, you need to be renting, living in a flat, or owning a flat, with dedicated parking at your property. 

2. Apply: For EST funding, visit their website here to start your application. For the OZEV grant, speak with your installer (like us at Lemac Power), who can claim the grant on your behalf.

3. Get Lemac Power’s Charger: Once you’ve applied, our team will help you through the next steps, including installation, to ensure you maximize your savings.

4. Start Home Charging: With up to £750 in combined funding from EST and OZEV, you can have your Lemac Power 7kW charger installed at a much lower cost.
