Key figures for businesses considering EV charger installation in Stockport.
Everything your Stockport business needs to know about installing workplace EV charge points.
Commercial EV charger installation covers charge points installed at workplaces, business parks, car parks, retail sites, hotels, and fleet depots. Unlike domestic installation, commercial projects typically involve multiple charge points, higher power outputs, load management systems, and network connectivity for usage reporting and access control.
In Stockport and across Greater Manchester, demand for commercial EV charging is growing rapidly. Businesses are installing charge points to attract and retain staff, meet sustainability commitments, support fleet electrification, and take advantage of government grants before uptake increases further.
Our OZEV-registered installers cover all commercial installation types across Stockport, Cheadle, Bramhall, Hazel Grove, Marple and the surrounding Greater Manchester area. Submit one enquiry form and receive free quotes from vetted local installers.
The Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS) offers eligible Stockport businesses up to £500 per charge point socket, capped at 40 sockets — a maximum of £20,000. The grant is claimed by your OZEV-registered installer and deducted from your installation cost. You do not need to claim separately. To qualify, your business must have dedicated off-street parking and at least one employee or fleet driver with an eligible plug-in vehicle.

The right solution depends on your site, fleet size and how your staff use their vehicles.
Charge points in employee car parks allow staff to charge during the working day. A 7kW charge point adds approximately 40–50 miles during an 8-hour shift — enough for most daily commutes. Ideal for offices, industrial units and business parks across Stockport.
Fleet depots and logistics companies in Stockport require higher-power charging to turn vehicles around quickly. Rapid and ultra-rapid charge points (50–150kW) can add 100 miles in under 30 minutes, minimising downtime for delivery and service fleets.
Retail parks, leisure venues and car parks across Stockport can attract EV drivers and generate revenue by offering public or semi-public charging. Networked charge points allow you to set pricing, control access and monitor usage remotely.
Commercial landlords and property developers in Stockport are increasingly required to provide EV charging as part of planning conditions. We work with developers and facilities managers to design and install charge point infrastructure across multi-unit properties.
