Charging at home in Dundee

What to know before installing a charger in Dundee

Dundee has a varied housing mix, from Victorian tenements and flats in the West End and Lochee, where on-street parking is common, to the detached and semi-detached homes with driveways in Broughty Ferry, Barnhill and Monifieth. A driveway or private parking space keeps a home charger simple.

Parts of Broughty Ferry, the West End and the city centre are conservation areas, so if you live in an older or listed property your installer will check before fixing a charger to the front and can suggest a discreet position. Homes close to the Tay can face salty, windy weather, so an outdoor-rated unit with suitable fixings is worth asking about.

The local electricity network is run by SSEN, which your installer notifies about the new chargepoint. If you rent or own a flat with private off-street parking, the UK government grant may cover 75% of the cost, up to £500.

Funding

EV charger grants in Dundee

Grant rules in Scotland

In Scotland, renters and flat owners with private off-street parking can use the UK government grant of 75% of the cost, up to £500. Scotland’s own home charger grant (up to £400, run by the Energy Saving Trust) is currently aimed at rural and island households on lower incomes, so most city homes will not qualify for it.

EV charger questions in Dundee

Do I need planning permission for a home charger in Dundee?

Usually not. Most wall-mounted home chargers are permitted development. Listed buildings and some conservation areas, such as parts of Broughty Ferry and the West End, are the exception, so your installer may suggest checking with Dundee City Council first.

Can I get the Scottish home charger grant in Dundee?

Probably not. The Energy Saving Trust’s home charger grant is currently aimed at rural and island households with lower incomes. The UK-wide grant for renters and flat owners with private parking may still apply.

How much does a home EV charger installation cost?

It depends on the charger you choose, how far the cable needs to run from your consumer unit to your parking space, and whether your electrics need any upgrades. That is why it pays to compare quotes: our vetted installers will give you a fixed price after looking at your property.

How long does installation take?

A standard home installation is usually completed in half a day to a day. Your installer will tell you if your property needs extra work, such as a consumer unit upgrade.
