Tesla offers at-home wall connector charging stations that serve as an “upgrade” from the standard charging cord provided when you purchase your Tesla. With the help of an electrician, you can install a wall connector to charge your Tesla Model S, Model X or Model 3 at your home.
This is a government grant for electric cars provided by the Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV).
The OLEV Grant, also known as Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme (EVHS), provides you with £500 off the cost of purchasing and installing a home charging point.
Tesla offers at-home wall connector charging stations that serve as an “upgrade” from the standard charging cord provided when you purchase your Tesla. With the help of an electrician, you can install a wall connector to charge your Tesla Model S or Model X at your your home. A wall connector can fully charge your Tesla Model S battery in 6 to 9 hours, or your Model X battery in 6 1⁄2 to 10 hours.
Charging a Tesla at home costs as little as 3p per mile. Overnight electricity costs are calculated at 10p per kWh. Therefore, charging at home from empty costs between £6.00 (for 60kWh battery) to £9.00 (for 90kWh battery).
The wall connector needs to be installed with a 60-90 amp circuit breaker and requires a trained electrician.
