Home charging your EV in West Berkshire

Around 40% of UK homes lack a driveway, making home electric vehicle (EV) charging tricky. But a new partnership between Kerbo Charge and West Berkshire Council is helping to change that.

Kerbo Charge offers an innovative solution. A flush pavement channel that allows residents to safely run a charging cable from their home to their EV parked on the street. It keeps pavements accessible and trip-free, great for both EV owners and pedestrians.

Clare from Kintbury is one of the early adopters

"We're really happy with our Kerbo Charge channel. It means we can now safely charge our EV from home."

Why it matters

• Save money: Charging at home can save you around £25 per charge compared to public charging points
• Smart investment: With an installation cost of £999, most users save around £1,100 per year
• Eco-friendly and inclusive: Making EV ownership more accessible

Kerbo Charge is working with thirty councils across the UK, with thirteen more trials underway.
