Budget cost estimate is based on the supply install and managed service provision for an EV charge point (up to 22 kW AC). These costs have been aggregated and then amortised over a 5 year period.
This cost estimate is for budgetary purposes only. Actual upfront and annual costs can be provided once the site survey and design process has been complete. This costs £500-750 but is fully refundable should the proposal proceed to order.
