Commercial EV Charger Installation in Burton upon Trent
For businesses that are providing company cars to employees, electric vehicles are an attractive option. Not only do they help demonstrate your environmental credentials to clients and shareholders, but they’re also cheaper to run and allow employees to make substantial savings on tax. Currently, the benefit in kind (BIK) rate for electric vehicles is currently 0%, compared with 20% plus for some vehicles.
