OZEV Grant Funding for Plug-in Taxis BLOG EV Charging OZEV Grant Funding for Plug-in Taxis 6 January 2026 at 12:50:07 What is the Plug-in Taxi Grant? Large-scale adoption of low-emission vehicles is set to pave the way for a greener, cleaner future, but, as beneficial as these vehicles are globally, they have a reputation for having a slightly higher price tag. The key to successful and widespread EV adoption is removing as many of these roadblocks as possible. Which brings us to the UK government’s next initiative; the Plug-in Taxi Grant. Aiming to tackle every area of urban transportation, this grant is targeted towards private-hire vehicles, or more plainly, taxis. The Plug-in Taxi Grant (PiTG) has been introduced to support the uptake of purpose-built ULEV taxis by narrowing the cost discrepancies between old-style combustion engine vehicles and their traditionally more expensive ultra-low emission counterparts. How much funding is available? Unlike other similar grants, the Plug-in Taxi Grant (PiTG) is applied to eligible vehicles before purchase. Depending on the range, emissions and design of the vehicle, the government will subsidise up to £6000 of the cost to purchase. As the grant is automatically applied for buyers, the responsibility for applying for the grant belongs to the vehicle manufacturer, who must provide proof that the vehicle meets the sustainability requirements outlined by the government. Full details of the application process can be found on the government website. Depending on these results, eligible taxis are allocated into 1 or 2 categories based on their carbon emissions and zero-emission range. Category 1 PiTG: ● Up to £6000 ● A zero-emission range of 70 miles or more and emissions of less than 50gCO2/km Category 2 PiTG: ● Up to £3000 ● A zero-emission range of 10 to 69 miles and emissions of less than 50gCO2/km Conditions of the Grant The PiTG is only available for the purchase of new taxis, therefore second hand and newly converted taxis will not be eligible. Alongside requirements for carbon-emissions and range, vehicles also need to meet accessibility provisions, e.g. it must be wheelchair accessible. A full list of eligible vehicles can be found here . For more information regarding the PiTG and eligibility, please visit: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/plug-in-taxi-grants-eligibility-and-applications Contact us to learn more about how we can support EV fleet taxis.

My charging cable is stuck? Home Site Structure Support Site Structure My charging cable is stuck? Product Support My charging cable is stuck? Chargers often include a cable/plug locking feature (often referred to as a Hatch Lock) to prevent cable theft. The lock is automatically engaged when a charging session starts and is disengaged when the session is terminated. Attempts to forcibly remove a locked plug may damage the locking pin within the charging unit. Make sure the charging session has stopped. The lock is engaged when a charge session is active. Make sure the vehicle is unlocked. Unlocking the vehicle may signal the cable lock in the charge point to release. Check the vehicle to make sure it’s not preventing the cable from being removed. Some vehicles have a cable locking/unlocking function using a physical or on-screen button. Remove the plug from the vehicle. Disconnection of the cable from the vehicle stops communication between the vehicle and the charger and this may release the cable lock. Make sure the plug is pushed fully into the charging unit and then carefully try to remove it. The charging lock uses a pin that engages with the plug. Obstruction of the pin may prevent it from disengaging. Pushing the plug fully into the charging may provide free movement for the pin to be released. Check if your charging app has locked your cable. It is a common feature within charging apps to ‘permanently’ lock the cable in place for anti-theft purposes. For further assistance please contact us via our online chat service. This is available Monday to Friday 8:30am – 4:30pm GMT and is the fastest way to access support. Alternatively, use our contact form and one of our team will get back to you as soon as they can. 8 September 2023 Last updated: Related Support My unit was installed a long time ago, and is out of warranty, but has now developed a fault.
