With more people seeking out ways to reduce their carbon footprint and save money on fuel costs, the switch to electric cars has grown significantly over recent years. But as the number of electric cars on UK roads grows rapidly, the demand for convenient and reliable ways to charge them is becoming more important than ever.
Investing in a home with a built-in electric car charging point is a smart move for those looking to stay ahead of the curve, especially since the UK government aims to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2030.
At Jelson Homes, we are proud to provide innovative and sustainable homes that are designed for your convenience. As part of our commitment to sustainability, we offer a range of new build homes with provision for electricity charging facilities and built-in electric car charging points at our Pincet Corner development at North Kilworth.
But what are the benefits of houses with car chargers? In this blog, we’ll explore how buying a home with an EV charging point means you can contribute to a more sustainable future while enjoying the benefits of owning an electric vehicle.
Convenient Charging
Having an electric car charger at home is more convenient than using public charging stations. With a home charger, you can plug your electric vehicle in overnight and wake up to a fully charged battery in the morning, without the worry of finding an available public charger. Additionally, you can also charge your car at any time, whether it’s during the day or night, giving you the flexibility to fit charging into your daily routine.
Cost Savings
Having an electric car charger at home can also save you money in the long run. While charging at public charging stations can often be expensive, charging your car at home is typically much cheaper. You can also take advantage of off-peak electricity rates, which are usually lower than peak rates, to save even more money. Plus, by charging your car at home you don't have to pay for parking or wait in line to use a public charging station, which can be time-consuming and costly.
A Greener Lifestyle
Using an electric car is just one way of living a greener lifestyle. By charging your car with renewable energy, such as solar power, you can significantly reduce your carbon footprint and help combat climate change.
At Jelson Homes, many of our developments also offer other eco-friendly features like energy-efficient lighting and appliances and water-saving fixtures. By choosing one of our new build developments, you’ll enjoy a modern, comfortable, and sustainable lifestyle that is perfect for you and your family.
