Disclaimer

Offpeak is editorial information, not advice. Here is exactly what that means.

Prices and rates change

Every figure on this site was checked against the cited source on the access date shown in that article's sources list. Energy tariffs, hardware prices, grant schemes and regulations change, sometimes quickly. Before you spend money, check the linked primary source for the current figure. Where we say "typical", we mean typical of the sources we cite, not a quote for your circumstances.

Not financial advice

Our cost comparisons and calculators are arithmetic on published rates, offered to help you frame a decision. They are not financial advice and we are not regulated to give any. Your own supplier's bill, meter and standing charge determine what you actually pay.

Not electrical advice

Chargepoint installation involves your home's consumer unit, earthing arrangements and load calculations. Nothing on this site qualifies you, or us, to do that work. Use an installer who is registered with a government-approved scheme and follows BS 7671 wiring regulations. Never attempt DIY chargepoint wiring.

Grants and eligibility

We describe UK grant schemes as the government publishes them, but gov.uk is the only authority on eligibility and scheme status. Always confirm on the official page we link before you rely on a grant in your budget.

No liability

To the extent the law allows, Offpeak accepts no liability for loss arising from reliance on the information on this site. That is not us dodging our duty to be accurate (see oureditorial standards); it is us being clear that a free editorial website is a starting point for your decisions, not a substitute for a quote, a qualified professional, or the primary source.

External links

We link to government, supplier and manufacturer pages because they are the primary sources. We are not responsible for their content and links do not imply endorsement in either direction.
