Charging at home in Luton

What to know before installing a charger in Luton

Luton has a large amount of Victorian and Edwardian terracing close to the centre, in areas such as Bury Park, Dallow and High Town, where most households park on the street. Suburbs such as Stopsley, Leagrave, Bramingham and Barnfield have more semi-detached homes with driveways, which suit a wall-mounted charger.

Where a terrace has no driveway, a home charger is not usually practical, so public and workplace charging tend to be the options. Where you do have private parking, the cable route from the consumer unit to the space is usually the main factor in the quote.

The local electricity network is run by UK Power Networks, which your installer notifies about the new chargepoint. Renters and flat owners with private off-street parking may qualify for the UK government grant of up to £500.

Funding

EV charger grants in Luton

Grant rules in England

In England, the UK government’s EV chargepoint grant pays 75% of the cost of buying and installing a chargepoint, up to £500, if you rent and live in a property or own and live in a flat, and you have private off-street parking. A separate grant can help households with only on-street parking that install a cross-pavement charging solution. Homeowners in houses with their own driveway are not currently eligible for a grant.

EV charger questions in Luton

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

Usually not. Most wall-mounted home chargers are permitted development. Listed buildings and some conservation areas, such as parts of the town centre, are the exception, so your installer may suggest checking with Luton Borough Council first.

I live in a terrace with no driveway. What are my options?

A home charger needs private off-street parking. Without it, public and workplace charging is usually the practical option, though some councils run on-street charging schemes, so it is worth asking Luton Borough Council.

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.
