Commercial EV charger installation
Charging for staff, customers or a company fleet — installation for businesses across the North East.
Commercial EV charger installation covers a broader range of situations than a single home charger: staff car parks, customer parking at retail or hospitality sites, and dedicated charging for a company fleet. The right setup depends heavily on how many vehicles need to charge, how often, and whether charging needs to happen simultaneously across multiple bays.
Multi-charger commercial sites usually need load management — software or hardware that shares available electrical capacity across chargers so they don't all draw full power at once and trip the site's supply. This is a bigger consideration for businesses than it is for a single home installation, and it's worth discussing early with whoever assesses your site.
Businesses, charities and public sector organisations installing workplace chargepoints may also be able to claim towards the cost through the government's Workplace Charging Scheme — our EV charger grants guide covers the current position on that scheme alongside the separate scheme for renters and flat owners.
Number of vehicles
Staff, customer and fleet charging all have different demand patterns — worth thinking through before you get quotes.
Load management
Multiple chargers on one site usually need load management to share available electrical capacity safely.
Workplace Charging Scheme
Eligible businesses, charities and public sector bodies may be able to claim towards installation costs.
Site electrical capacity
Larger commercial installations may need an assessment of whether your site’s incoming supply can support the load.
Common questions
Can businesses get a grant towards installation?
Eligible businesses, charities and public sector organisations may be able to claim through the Workplace Charging Scheme — see our grants guide.
What's load management and do we need it?
It's software or hardware that shares available power across multiple chargers. Sites with more than a couple of chargers usually need it.
