OVO x Volvo: questions and answers

Important to know

For full details about Charge Anytime, read through our full terms and conditions. For full details about the 2,700 free miles offer, our offer terms are here

1 The 7p per kWh rate is effective whenever you smart charge your EV. If you'd like to override your smart charging schedule to top up quickly, you'll be charged at your standard home energy electricity rate. The next time you charge, you’ll automatically go back to your smart charging schedule.

2 OVO is offering up to 2,700 free Charge Anytime miles through £50 credit for Volvo customers who add Charge Anytime to their plan. This offer is available to new and existing OVO customers who don't already have Charge Anytime. 2,700 free miles is based on a Volvo EC40 Single Motor Extended Range driving 3.8 miles per kWh, which equates to 714 free kWhs (actual sum: 2,714 miles based on WLTP). Our Charge Anytime rate is 7p per kWh when smart charging, which works out at £50 free credit. Actual mileage received will vary depending on your EV model, your driving style, and other external factors. We'll give you these free miles by adding £50 credit to your OVO account after you have successfully added Charge Anytime to your plan. View full offer terms and conditions here.

3 Actual sum is £542.50 When you add Charge Anytime to your plan, your home energy rate will stay the same, but the energy consumed by your EV will be charged at an effective rate of 7p per kWh when EV smart charging (thanks to payment of your Charge Anytime charging credit).

The £542.50 saving is based on an average Charge Anytime customer using 3100kWh a year to charge their EV using the Charge Anytime add on. The Charge Anytime rate on 01/10/2024 is 7p per kWh for Charge Anytime charging compared to the OVO’s UK average SVT rate of 24.5p per kWh. Actual savings will vary depending on vehicle efficiency, driving style, EV charging usage and the cost per kWh of your standard home energy tariff.

4 Our smart tech aims to charge your car when the grid has more renewable energy in it, within the time you’ve set. Meaning it’s less likely your EV will be charged by energy from fossil fuels.

5 OVO Energy plants 1 million trees across the UK each year with its tree planting partners, The Conservation Volunteers and the Woodland Trust. Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, so planting trees helps to slow down climate change.
