Vehicle To Grid Chargers: What's Next?

OVO Vehicle-to-Grid Trial: what’s next

Our trial is slowly coming to end, on a very high note. You’ve helped us see the potential electric vehicles have in building a better grid for everyone – and shaping the UK’s low carbon future. That calls for a big shout-out to every single one of our participants!

Many of our members are now moving to the end of their 2-year trial period. If you're one of them, here's what to expect.

Your V2G export credits will stay the same until at least January 2023

During this time, your app will continue to control your Charger, as usual.

Plus, your export rates will stay the same after your trial ends. That’s 26p/kWh if you have a solar PV system, and 30p/kWh if you don’t. You’ll enjoy these rates as long as you keep using your Charger.

If your energy plan is ending, you can keep your V2G export credits by picking one of our single-rate plans, or our variable plan (called Simpler Energy). V2G credits are not available on a multi-rate plan (like Economic 7).

By continuing to receive the V2G export credits after your trial, you agree to our V2G post-trial terms and conditions.

V2G Proposition

You can keep your charger, for free

The moment your trial ends, the charger is all yours. You don’t have to make any new payments for it.

If you don’t want your charger any more, just email us at [email protected]. We'll remove it for free if you request this within 2 months from the date your trial end (we’ll drop you an email before that date).

If you are still within your trial period, the V2G Trial terms and conditions still apply.
