Ohme becomes EV charger provider for Motability Scheme

Ohme has been appointed as the official EV charger provider for customers on the Motability scheme, supporting work to enable electric vehicle take-up by disabled people.

Ohme’s partnership with Motability will support work to make the switch to EVs easier for disabled people while also saving Motability Scheme customers money on charging

The Motability Scheme provides mobility to more than 640,000 customers and Ohme’s partnership with Motability Operations will reinforce its work to make the switch to EVs easier for disabled people through reliable, personal e-mobility.

Thanks to its unique technology, Ohme’s Home Pro smart charger will also enable Motability Scheme customers to save money when charging by enabling them to pre-set their charging periods when prices are lower and also when renewable energy generation is at its highest.

“Our customers have over 600,000 cars on the road in the UK,” said Andrew Miller, CEO at Motability Operations. “To make the transition to electric as easy as possible for our customers we have to find practical and affordable ways for them to charge their vehicles and help to reduce anxiety over range.”

This partnership comes as Ohme’s Home Pro smart charger continues to attract increasing interest from personal and business drivers alike. It also follows hot on the heels of the company’s awards win at the 2022 Great British Fleet Awards, where it took the title of Innovation in Electric Vehicles.

“Here at Ohme, we are delighted to announce this partnership with Motability Operations and are looking forward to helping their customers in their transition to electric vehicles,” said Ohme CEO David Watson. “Our Home Pro is the best EV smart charger on the market and can help to reduce charging costs and CO2 by up to 70% compared to standard charging, so we are looking forward to helping Motability customers realise those savings.”
