Installing in London: what to expect

London
Region

London's housing stock is predominantly Victorian and Edwardian terraces and purpose-built flats. Many properties have older consumer units that may need upgrading, and cable runs in terraced houses often need to pass through multiple rooms to reach front-of-property parking.

Off-street parking is limited in inner London. Many residents rely on on-street parking, which makes home charger installation challenging without a dedicated driveway or garage. Outer boroughs typically have better off-street parking availability.

London has a high proportion of renters and flat owners — both eligible for the OZEV grant. If you rent or own a flat in London, you're likely to qualify for up to £500 off your installation.

What drives the cost

The £900–1,400 band is the widest on this site, and London earns it. Victorian and Edwardian terraces dominate the inner boroughs: the consumer unit typically sits at the rear of the house while the car parks at the front, so conduit traverses two or three rooms. Older consumer units across both stock types frequently need upgrading for the required 32A circuit, adding £200–400. Outer-borough driveways with a consumer unit close to the parking space are the jobs that stay near £900; inner terraces with a supply upgrade are where the band's top is reached.
