Future-proof your business premises with multi-bay workplace EV charging infrastructure. KLIC ELECTRICAL installs commercial EV charge points across Essex and East London — from single bollard installs to managed multi-point charging bays with access control and load management.
Workplace EV Charging in Essex & East London
With the UK government's 2035 ban on new petrol and diesel car sales approaching, installing workplace EV charging is no longer a luxury — it is a business necessity. Employees, visitors, and fleet vehicles all need reliable charging infrastructure on-site. The OZEV Workplace Charging Scheme still provides grants of up to £350 per socket (maximum 40 sockets) for eligible businesses.
KLIC ELECTRICAL designs and installs workplace EV charging solutions for offices, car parks, retail premises, hospitality venues, and industrial sites across Essex and East London. From single-bay installs for small businesses to large-scale multi-point infrastructure with smart load management and OCPP network connectivity, we deliver commercial EV charging that grows with your fleet.
What's Included in Your Workplace EV Charging Project
Free Site Survey
We assess your car park layout, incoming supply capacity, distribution board, and cable routing options — producing a design that maximises charge point density without requiring expensive supply upgrades.
Load Management Design
Smart load management (dynamic power sharing) design ensures your charge points share available capacity intelligently — preventing overloads without costly network upgrades.
Charge Point Supply & Installation
Supply and installation of commercial-grade OZEV-approved charge points from leading brands including Pod Point, Hypervolt, and Zaptec — mounted on walls, bollards, or ground pedestals.
OCPP Network Connectivity
OCPP-compliant charge points with network connectivity for access control, usage reporting, cost recovery, and remote management — including employee RFID cards or app-based access.
OZEV Grant Application
We manage the Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS) grant application on your behalf — confirming eligibility and securing up to £350 per charge point socket before installation.
Electrical Certification
All workplace EV installations are issued with an EICR on the dedicated EV supply circuit, plus electrical installation certificates for each charge point — required by your insurer.
Commercial EV Charging — Key Considerations for Businesses
Workplace EV charging involves more complexity than domestic installations — supply capacity, load management, and billing all need careful planning.
Load Management
Most commercial premises cannot simply add 7.4kW per charge point without exceeding their available supply capacity. Smart load management distributes available power across all active charge points dynamically — maximising charging speed for all users without exceeding your incoming supply limit.
Cost Recovery & Access Control
OCPP-connected charge points allow you to charge employees or visitors for electricity used — either at cost or with a markup. RFID card or app-based access prevents unauthorised use and provides per-session usage data for payroll reimbursement schemes.
Future Proofing
We design cable containment and sub-distribution to allow future charge point additions without major rewiring. Your initial investment protects the infrastructure for growth from 2 charge points to 20 without starting from scratch.

Workplace EV Charging FAQs
Common questions about commercial EV charge point installation in Essex and East London.
Costs vary significantly based on the number of charge points, cable run distances, and whether supply upgrades are required. A single charge point installation for a small business typically costs £800–£1,500 installed (before any OZEV grant offset). Multi-point installations are quoted on a per-project basis after our site survey. The OZEV WCS grant of up to £350 per socket can significantly offset costs for eligible businesses.
A useful starting rule is one charge point per 5–10 employees who drive electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles, plus any fleet vehicles. With smart load management, charge points can share capacity, so you can install more points than your raw supply capacity might suggest. We model this during your site survey and provide a recommended charge point count and infrastructure sizing.
Yes — OCPP-connected charge points support cost recovery billing, where employees are charged at cost (or with a margin) for electricity used. Most platforms provide per-session data exports compatible with payroll software. Alternatively, you can offer free employee charging as a benefit — the choice is yours.
In most cases, workplace EV charge points qualify as Permitted Development under Class A (upstand charge points in existing car parks) or Class C (wall-mounted units), and do not require formal planning permission. Exceptions include listed buildings and conservation areas. We check planning requirements during your site survey.
OCPP (Open Charge Point Protocol) is an open communication standard between EV charge points and their management platforms. Choosing OCPP-compliant charge points means you are not locked to a single network provider — you can switch management software without replacing hardware. All charge points we install are OCPP compliant.
Yes — and this is a common approach. We design your initial installation with future expansion in mind, installing appropriately sized cable containment and sub-distribution to allow additional charge points to be added later without significant rewiring costs. The upfront investment in future-proof infrastructure typically adds only 10–15% to the initial project cost.
