Empower Your Business with the Workplace Charging Scheme – and Let Genfit Handle the Installation

Apr 4, 2025

Empower Your Business with the Workplace Charging Scheme

As the shift towards electric vehicles (EVs) gathers pace, businesses across the UK have a great opportunity to support sustainability while improving their operations. The Government’s Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS) offers financial support to organisations looking to install EV charge points – and Genfit is here to take care of the full installation for you.


What is the Workplace Charging Scheme?

The Workplace Charging Scheme is a government initiative designed to encourage the uptake of electric vehicles by subsidising the cost of installing charge points at workplaces.

Eligible organisations can receive up to 75% off the cost of purchase and installation – capped at £350 per socket – for up to 40 sockets across all their sites. That means you could claim up to £14,000 in total.

View the official scheme details here.


Who Can Apply?

To qualify, your organisation must:

  • Be a registered business, charity or public sector organisation
  • Be located in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland
  • Have dedicated off-street parking for staff or fleet vehicles
  • Own the property or have permission from the landlord
  • Use an authorised installer (Genfit is OZEV-approved)

You don’t need to already have electric vehicles in use – just a plan to support EV adoption.

We make the process simple from start to finish. As an OZEV-authorised installer, Genfit can ensure your installation is compliant with the scheme’s requirements – and that you receive the full funding you’re entitled to.
