Workplace EV chargers
Many businesses are transitioning to on-site renewable generation and pairing this with a business EV charger installation. Ennovus Solutions can support in the turnkey development of the integrated solution of on-site renewables and business EV chargers. Speak to one of our expert team or get your free quote today.
What are the types of workplace EV chargers?
Commercial EV charger installations can typically be split into three main categories; single phase AC, three phase AC, and DC rapid chargepoints. DC rapid EV chargers are most suitable for service stations, whereas AC chargers are much more suited to businesses and the workplace such as offices, hotels, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, leisure centres, as well as many other.
When selecting the right commercial EV charger installation, it is also important to consider the required functionality. For example, business EV chargers can be free to use or require RFID or payment access, are available as socket or tethered chargers, can require load management, or require a back office management platform for employee billing.
Our installation process
Our installation process is designed to ensure a smooth transition from initial engagement through to implementation and handover. We can combine an EV chargepoint installation with other technologies such as roof mounted solar PV to maximise the benefits.

The benefits of commercial EV charger installations
Not sure if a commercial EV charger installation is right for your business? Check out some of the benefits of workplace EV chargers below or get in touch with our team to discuss your options.
Employee comfort
More and more people are moving to electric vehicles. Having workplace EV chargers is an employee perk whilst also showing commitment to sustainability.
Integrate with solar panels
Installing a business EV charger alongside solar panels allows the EVs to be charged via on-site generation, offsetting grid electricity import.
Additional revenue stream
A business can set different charging rates for their employees and the public, providing an opportunity to generate an income.
What grants are available to support workplace EV charger installations?
The only widely applicable grant relating to EVCPs is the Workplace Charging Scheme or WCS, administered by OZEV (Office for Zero Emission Vehicles). The grant was due to expire at the end of March 2026; however, the grant has been extended to 31st March 2027 and the maximum grant has increased from £350 to £500 off the workplace EV charger installation per socket.
The main two requirements to be eligible are:
- The chargepoints must be dedicated to staff or fleet charging.
- The chargepoints must be installed by an OZEV approved installer.
Load management for commercial EV charger installations
Workplace EV charger installations will increase an additional electrical load onto site. To avoid overloading your existing infrastructure and upgrade requirements, Ennovus Solutions specify dynamic load management alongside the commercial EV charger installation to ensure that the power draw from the EV chargers, combined with the existing site loads, doesn’t exceed the maximum fuse rating.
There are three types of dynamic load management: priority bay, equal sharing, and first come first serve. Contact us today to discuss with our friendly team how dynamic load management and commercial EV charger installations can support your business.
