EV Smart Charge
Points Regulations
What are the EV Smart Charge Points Regulations?
The Electric Vehicles (Smart Charge Points) Regulations 2021 is the sale and installation of
electric vehicle charge points are prohibited unless they meet smart functionality
requirements.
The regulations only affect charge points defined as:
• Occupiers of domestic premises and their visitors
• People at their place of work including fleet drivers at most depots
At Project EV, we would like to highlight and put your mind at ease that all of our charge
points comply with these new standards and have been designed to protect both the
stability of the electricity grid and our consumers. Project EV is working in partnership with
Electric Miles to provide consumers with not only a compliant solution, but the best smart
charging experience available.
Key Points You Should Know
• Default off-peak charging – The charge point will not operate during peak hours of 8am
to 11am and 4pm to 10pm, on weekdays. We would like to make it clear that you can over
ride these options if you wish.
• Demand Side Response (DSR) – Any charge point with a DSR Agreement won't need to
follow the default off peak charging regulations as a DSR Agreement will work in
conjunction with the end user’s electricity tariff enabling the user to save money. Project EV
has teamed up with Electric Miles who can provide this feature should you require it.
• Randomised delay – Please note when you set your car to charge it may not start
instantaneously, it may take up 600 seconds before the car begins to charge. This is of no
fault on the charger, it is simply complying to regulation above. However, there are certain
charging scenarios where this functionality is not desirable, particularly if an immediate
response is needed from the charge point, therefore the owner or end-user has the option
to cancel the randomised delay by manually overriding the delay for that charge.
If you have any questions regarding the regulations above please send an email to:
enquiries@projectev.co.uk
These regulations are mandatory, and will come straight out the box with the settings
included. As per regulations, in certain circumstances, these regulations are not desirable
and must give the end user the option to opt out at any point - as well as to opt back in.
