Guisborough is a prosperous North Yorkshire market town where EV uptake is growing steadily, driven by the combination of longer rural commute distances and the availability of cheaper overnight charging tariffs. The town's housing stock is particularly well-suited to home charger installation: the substantial detached and semi-detached homes around Hutton Lane, Stokesley Road and the modern estates on the town edges typically have garages or private driveways with straightforward cable routes to the consumer unit. For rural properties in the surrounding villages — Great Ayton, Newton under Roseberry, and the Cleveland Hills communities — we are experienced with longer external cable runs and outbuilding installations. As an OZEV approved installer, we handle the grant application process on your behalf.

This includes the charger unit, all cabling, installation and commissioning. The OZEV grant covers up to £500, bringing the net cost down to £450-£850.

We handle the entire grant application process — you simply pay the reduced price.
The best EV charger depends on your priorities. The MyEnergi Zappi is ideal if you have solar panels as it can divert excess solar energy to your car. The Ohme Home Pro offers the best smart tariff integration for cheap overnight charging. The Tesla Wall Connector is the premium choice for Tesla owners. The Wallbox Pulsar Max offers excellent build quality and smart features. We can advise on the best charger for your specific setup.
Yes, and this is one of the most satisfying aspects of having both solar and an EV. A MyEnergi Zappi charger can automatically divert excess solar energy to your car, giving you genuinely free motoring. On a sunny day, a 4kW solar system can add 15-20 miles of range per hour of charging. Combined with battery storage, you can store daytime solar energy and charge your car overnight from the battery.
A tethered charger has the cable permanently attached (like a petrol pump), so you simply grab the cable and plug in. An untethered (socketed) charger requires you to use your own cable. Tethered is more convenient for home use. Most chargers are available in both options. The Zappi, Ohme Home Pro and Wallbox Pulsar Max are all available tethered.

How much does EV charger installation cost in Guisborough?
A 7 kW home charger typically costs £900–£1,200 fully fitted in Guisborough, depending on the charger and cable run. Eligible renters and flat owners can claim the OZEV chargepoint grant of up to £500.
Can a normal electrician install an EV charger?
It must be an electrician competent in EV charging installations who notifies your DNO (Northern Powergrid in our region) and certifies the work. ALPS are OZEV-approved and NAPIT-registered, and handle the whole process.
Which is better — 3 kW or 7 kW?
A 7 kW charger is the standard home choice: roughly twice the speed of 3 kW, fully charging most EVs overnight (~3–8 hours). 22 kW needs three-phase supply, which most homes do not have.
Can my charger use my solar panels?
Yes — solar-aware chargers like the Zappi or Ohme divert excess solar generation into your car. As solar installers as well as EV specialists, ALPS design the two systems to work together.
