What to know before installing a charger in Stoke-on-Trent
Stoke-on-Trent grew from six towns (Tunstall, Burslem, Hanley, Stoke, Fenton and Longton), and much of the city is made up of Victorian terraces where on-street parking is common. Areas such as Trentham, Meir Park and newer estates are more likely to have driveways that suit a home charger.
Some older pottery-era buildings and town centres are in conservation areas, so check with your installer if your home is in one. On terraced streets without off-street parking, ask about approved cross-pavement solutions rather than trailing a cable.
The local network is run by National Grid Electricity Distribution, 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.

EV charger grants in Stoke-on-Trent
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 Stoke-on-Trent
Do I need planning permission for a home charger in Stoke-on-Trent?
Usually not. Most wall-mounted home chargers are permitted development. Listed buildings and some conservation areas are the exception, so your installer may suggest checking with Stoke-on-Trent City Council first.
Do you cover Newcastle-under-Lyme and Kidsgrove too?
Yes. Our installers cover the whole Potteries area, including Newcastle-under-Lyme, Kidsgrove and Stone. Enter your postcode in the form and your enquiry will be matched locally.
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.
