Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme
Also called: EVHS The Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme was a UK grant that supported the cost of installing domestic electric-vehicle charging devices from 2014 to 2022. It is closed to new applications. GOV.UK records 340,222 domestic charging-device installations funded under EVHS, with £140.8 million of grant support. The scheme was replaced by later Electric Vehicle Chargepoint Grant arrangements. EVHS remains useful as a historic term because older installer guidance and chargepoint purchase records still refer to it.
