OUR CHARGERS
Offer the right chargepoints for your staff, fleet and business requirements.
Boost EV can offer a range of options when it comes to your install. Charging units can offer many different speeds, this can be seen on the graph shown.
WORKPLACE CHARGING: For an EV charger installation at the workplace, you have the flexibility to utilise a single phase 230V supply or a three phase 415V supply. Before taking your enquiry further, please check that the local distribution unit within your workplace facility has the spare capacity and load to install a single-pole or three-pole circuit breaker to suit the following EV charging infrastructure options:-

Some of the different chargers we offer are:
AC CHARGERS
FAST CHARGERS
AC chargers for the workplace give you the flexibility to utilise a single phase 230V supply which would give you a 7kW charger. If your workplace has a three phase 415V supply, this gives you the option of a 22kW charger. If your workplace has a three phase supply it is a much better option. The difference in charging a car from 0-80% can be halved, rather than charging with a single phase charger.
DC CHARGERS
RAPID CHARGERS
DC chargers, also known as rapid chargers are the fastest way to charge an electric vehicle. Rapid chargers are usually from 30-50kW. Depending on your car a rapid charger could charge from 0-80% in just 30 minutes. There are also Ultra rapid which can go up to 500kW, although these are usually found at petrol stations and services. They can charge from 0-80% in 10 minutes. DC chargers aren’t very suitable for any other locations because it is an expensive way to charge your vehicle. A 22kW fast charger can still give you a fast charging time, then use rapid chargers to top up on a journey.
All chargers can be controlled either by an app or a unique RFID card.

FUTURE PROOF YOUR FLEET
Introducing intelligent charging solutions
for your business
It has been predicted that in the next 15-20 years, there will be 36 million electric cars on our roads. The government has also announced that by 2030 they want to see a ban on the sale of petrol and diesel cars. This doesn’t leave long to get prepared for an all electric world.
With everything heading in the direction of full EV you don’t want to wait around. The demand for the infrastructure to support facilities such as fleet charging will keep rising as the date of full EV approaches closer.
BENEFITS OF RUNNING A FULL ELECTRIC FLEET
Electric cars are a much more efficient way of transportation than petrol and diesel. Not only does it massively reduce your carbon footprint but also reduced running costs of a fleet. The average cost for a mid-range petrol/diesel vehicle to travel a 100 mile journey would be approximately £12.00, compare this to the cost for an EV to travel the same journey where the approximate cost would be £2.00. Significant running cost savings are also achieved with the maintenance costs of an EV being up-to 25% less and the relevant road tax being free of charge.
Now is the best time to start with a full electric fleet, with the government offering up to £14,000 to install charging points through the WCS Scheme. For more details on if you are eligible for the grant, read about our government grants.

MANAGING YOUR FLEET
With smart technology you can allow access for specific vehicles. Either using an RFID card or an account set up through an app. This gives you total control over who can and can’t use the charger, meaning you can keep it available for certain people or keep a set pattern.
Using the smart technology to set a schedule means your vehicle will be charged for when you need it. You can also charge your vehicle when energy is at its cheapest, saving you even more by making the switch to electric from fuel.
If you are wanting to monetize your chargers, for example if your staff are charging their vehicles at work. You can set it so the user will have to sign in to their specific ID before charging starts, which can all be tracked to show specific usage for each user. You can also take full control over the rate your charger costs, this could prevent people using the charger all day if you are limited on chargers.
The workplace charging scheme (WCS) is made to help businesses, charity or public sector organisations. The WCS helps to reduce the installation cost of a new workplace EV charger by £350 per socket and up to 40 charge points across all your business sites. The grant is designed to give an incentive to start introducing electric vehicles into your fleet.
To qualify for this grant it is stated you must have the following:
-Dedicated off street parking for staff only
-You must declare the intent to encourage EV amongst your staff.
-Installed by an OZEV approved installer, such as Boost EV
-You must own the property or have permission from the landlord.
To apply for the grant, follow the link here Forms overview: Workplace Charging Scheme application form – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) and complete the application form. If your application has been successful, you will receive your unique voucher code by email within 5 working days.
