Becoming an OZEV-authorised installer enables you to start installing charge points under Government schemes such as the Workplace Charging Scheme. Being a member of the Authorised Installer list allows chargepoint customers across the UK to locate and contact OZEV-authorised installers for chargepoint enquiries. When you have been given ‘Authorised Installer’ status, you will automatically be added to this list.
