Electric Vehicle Charger Installation
Home or Business Charging Solutions
The Government are taking a huge step towards net-zero, ending the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2030. This transition has accelerated the number of drivers looking to switch to an electric vehicle (EV) in recent years.
For the majority of drivers, the easiest place to charge an EV is at home or work, by topping up the battery as it’s used rather than waiting for it to get low. This also creates peace of mind, especially before a long journey, that your car won’t run out of charge before reaching the destination. Our team at Xpert Electrical work across West Yorkshire and the UK, offering a professional and reliable service to ensure that charge points are installed safely and efficiently.
What are some of the benefits of electric cars?
• They emit less greenhouse gases and air pollutants than petrol or diesel vehicles.
• Running costs are significantly reduced with EVs being cheaper to recharge than petrol or diesel vehicles are to refuel.
• Fully electric vehicles are zero-emissions which means they’re free to tax.
• The Government have a plug-in grant to contribute up to £2,500 towards the cost of an Electric Car.
• Lower emissions plug-in vehicles also attract lower charges from clean air zones and London’s ULEZ.
• Regenerative braking means that every time you brake, energy goes back into the battery where it can be used again.
What types of chargers are available?
Slow: Usually rated up to 3kW and takes 8-12 hours to fully charge your car.
Fast: Rated at either 7kW or 22kW and takes 1-6 hours to fully charge your car.
Rapid: Usually rated from 43kW and takes 20-60 minutes to charge your car to 80%.
There are many manufacturers providing products in the UK, and Xpert Electrical give you the freedom to choose any charger you want. As authorised install partners of Wallbox and Hypervolt, we recommend both these brands as affordable smart charging options.
