To boost the Electric Vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, the government has extended the Workplace Charging Scheme to support state-funded schools and education institutions to install EV chargepoint sockets at their sites. Eligible institutions in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland can receive 75% off the cost of purchasing and installing chargepoints, up to £2,500 per socket. There is a limit of 40 sockets per institution. Academy trusts can apply for up to a maximum of 40 sockets for each institution within the academy trust. Successful applicants will receive a voucher that is valid for 180 days from the date of issue. The installation must be completed by an authorised installer within this time. The closing date for applications is the 31st March 2026. EV Charging Scheme for Schools & Education Institutions (UK)
