Charging at home in Havering

What to know before installing a charger in Havering

Havering is outer-east London with a high number of 1930s and post-war semis in Romford, Hornchurch, Upminster and Gidea Park that have a driveway or garage, plus estates at Harold Hill and Collier Row and new flats in Romford. That makes it an easy borough for a home charger.

Gidea Park, Upminster and Hornchurch have conservation areas with older and listed properties, so check before fixing a charger to the front. If you only have a shared bay or park on the road, ask Havering Council about public charging nearby.

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

EV charger grants in Havering

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 Havering

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

Usually not. Most wall-mounted home chargers are permitted development. Listed buildings and some conservation areas, such as parts of Gidea Park, Upminster and Hornchurch, are the exception, so your installer may suggest checking with Havering Council first.

I live in a flat with allocated parking. Can I get a charger?

Often, yes, with the agreement of your building’s management company or freeholder. As a flat owner or renter with private off-street parking, you may also be able to claim the UK government grant of up to £500.

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.
