New OLEV grant brings Rolec EV charge point under £150

Rolec EV is now offering home charging points for electric vehicles starting at £149, following revisions to the OLEV homecharge scheme.

Grant funding had originally only been available against points which offer a data connection, enabling OLEV to track how the units are being used. But this is no longer the case.

Combined with a subsidy from Rolec EV, the 3.6kW (16 amp) and 7.2kW (32 amp) units, the latter offering twice the charging speed, are both priced at £149 including VAT.

Managing Director of Rolec EV, Kieron Alsop, said: “Not only will this new low price benefit new EV/PHEV drivers, it should also encourage existing PHEV drivers who are still home charging with a 13amp domestic socket to upgrade to a full WallPod mode 3 fast charging unit.”
