The EV Charger Grant Just Got Better. Here’s What You Need to Know.

The UK Government has increased the EV charge point grant from £350 to £500 per socket — but if you’re in Scotland, there’s an added bonus.

The Scottish Government has rolled out an additional £17.8 million in EV charging funding for 2026–27, covering home charging, workplace charging, rural areas, and even households without off-street parking. That means Scottish homeowners could be eligible for support from both the UK Government grant and Scottish Government funding through the Energy Saving Trust.

The grant covers the cost of the unit, installation labour, wiring, and safety certification — and it’s claimed on your behalf by your installer, so there’s no paperwork hassle on your end.

At GSM Electrical, we handle the whole process — from survey to sign-off. You get a certified, safe installation and the peace of mind that comes with using a trusted local electrician.
