How much do EVs cost to charge at home and are home chargers expensive to install?

Home charging points are now becoming pieces of design, like the Andersen A3 charger - (Andersen)

One of the main considerations when deciding to switch to an EV is whether or not you can conveniently charge it at home. Different EVs charge at different speeds, and some charging stations have varying abilities (not to mention prices).

The EV market is growing rapidly with sales up by nearly 24 per cent last year, but there’s still a lot to consider. However, once you’ve got to grips with EV charging, you’ll probably wonder why you didn’t change to an EV sooner. At home, it can be as simple as plugging in your vehicle, with no more fuel smells or spilling petrol on your shoes. Best of all, is the ability to have a full battery every morning, cheaply, thanks to charging at home.
