EV Charger Installation in Kidlington

Covering Kidlington from the old village centre on Church Street to the newer housing around it.

Kidlington, OX5

Kidlington was long known as one of the largest villages in England, though its parish council voted unanimously in February 2026 to adopt town status, formally recognising what had long been the reality on the ground. It's grown from a small centre around Church Street into a much larger place with extensive postwar housing and business parks to the north.

Installing in Kidlington, specifically

Church Street and the old centre

The older part of Kidlington, around Church Street and St Mary the Virgin church, has a mix of Georgian and early-20th-century buildings — we check parking and wall access here rather than assuming a driveway is available.

Postwar housing

Most of Kidlington's housing is postwar, built as the village expanded along the main road and around it. Off-street parking is more common on these streets, which tends to simplify an install.

Supply

Kidlington is on SSEN's Oxfordshire distribution network, the same operator covering the rest of the county.

Frequently asked questions

The questions we get asked most often by customers across Oxfordshire.

How much does an EV charger cost to install? +

A typical home installation costs between £800 and £1,400 depending on the charger model you choose and the complexity of the cable run. That includes the charger unit, the full installation, and the electrical certification. We'll give you a fixed quote before any work starts — no surprises.

What is the OZEV grant and can I get it? +

The OZEV EV chargepoint grant contributes up to £350 toward the cost of installation for eligible properties — currently flats, rental homes, and some commercial premises. Eligibility rules change often, so we'll check your situation honestly and handle the full application if you qualify.

How long does a typical installation take? +

Most home installations are finished in 3 to 5 hours. We arrive in the morning, protect your driveway and walls, run the cable, install the charger, commission it on the app, and give you a walkthrough before we leave.

Do I need a driveway to have a charger fitted? +

Off-street parking is the simplest case, but not the only one. If you have a dedicated bay or a garage we can usually find a safe cable route. Street-to-kerb installations are generally not permitted under current regulations — we'll always tell you upfront if we can't help.

Which charger brands do you install? +

We fit all major brands including Zappi, Ohme, Hypervolt, Sync EV, EO and Wallbox. If you already know what you want we'll install it; if not, we'll recommend the right unit for your car, tariff and property.
