EV Charger Installation in Bodmin
Home EV Charger Installation in Bodmin
CCS Heating & Renewables installs home EV chargers throughout Bodmin and the surrounding PL31 and PL30 postcodes, roughly 10 miles from our Pool base near Redruth via the A391 and A30. As MCS-certified Cornwall installers with 200+ projects delivered and a 5.0/5 rating from 14 Google reviews, we fit smart chargers to suit Bodmin's varied housing — Victorian granite terraces near the town centre and Beacon, 1950s to 1970s semis, and the fast-growing new-build estates at Highfield Park and Barons Meadow.
Chargers We Fit
- Zappi — solar-diversion charging, ideal for the many new-build homes here arriving with panels.
- Ohme — tariff-smart charging for cheap overnight rates.
- Easee — compact and load-balanced for older terraced supplies.
Solar Diversion & Rural Charging
Bodmin is a strong solar area, and a Zappi with solar diversion charges your car from surplus daytime generation rather than exporting it cheaply to the grid. We regularly install chargers and panels together — see our solar panel installation service. This matters most in the surrounding rural parishes of Lanivet, Cardinham and Blisland, which sit off the mains gas grid and are poorly served by public charging, so home charging is genuinely the only practical option. A 7kW charger adds around 30 miles of range per hour, versus 24+ hours on a standard plug.
Parking & Property Context
The Highfield Park and Barons Meadow developments come with modern wiring, driveways and, in many cases, garages, making them among the simplest retrofits in north Cornwall. Detached rural properties around Bodmin Moor almost always have ample off-street parking, though longer cable runs from the meter can affect siting — we assess this on survey. The older granite terraces around Berrycoombe and the town core sometimes rely on on-street parking, which limits home-charger options and grant eligibility.
Grants, Regulations & OZEV
The OZEV EV chargepoint grant (up to £350) remains open to flat owners and tenants, useful for the apartments and rented terraces near the town centre. Homeowners with driveways install without a grant but still benefit from smart-tariff savings. Every job is completed to BS 7671 and notified under Part P, with its own dedicated circuit, RCD protection and a compliant smart charger.
