How EV Installers Can Boost Revenue With Each Install
With the UK’s rapid shift to electric vehicles, EV charger installation has become one of the fastest-growing opportunities for electricians and renewable energy specialists. But beyond fitting wall boxes, smart installers are finding ways to increase revenue per installation — by adding value for customers and creating new, recurring income streams.
Whether you’re an independent installer or part of a larger network, here are some practical ways to boost your profits with each EV charger install.
Check out our range of Type 2 EV Charging Cables.
1. Upsell EV Charging Accessories
One of the easiest ways to increase revenue per job is by offering EV charging accessories alongside installations. Drivers want convenience, safety, and reliability — and you can supply it.
Popular Add-Ons Include:
-
High-quality charging cables – such as Type 2 to Type 2 cables for untethered home chargers.
-
Cable holders and organisers – to keep driveways tidy and cables protected.
-
Protective cases and cable locks – for extra security and longevity.
-
Weatherproof covers – ideal for outdoor charger installations.
By offering these products at the time of installation, customers get a complete charging solution — and you earn additional margin on every job.

2. Educate Customers on Charging Options
Most EV drivers are new to electric ownership and appreciate expert guidance. Take a few minutes to explain the benefits of different cable types, charging speeds, and connectors — it helps customers make informed decisions and builds trust.
For example:
-
Explain the difference between single-phase (7kW) and three-phase (22kW) charging.
-
Highlight how a longer cable or higher-rated model can future-proof their setup.
-
Offer recommendations for public charging compatibility.
Educating customers often leads to natural upsells — and positions you as a knowledgeable, trusted installer they’ll return to and recommend.
3. Offer Maintenance & Safety Checks
Once an EV charger is installed, it needs occasional inspection to ensure safe and efficient operation. By offering annual maintenance plans or safety checks, you create recurring revenue while providing added peace of mind for customers.
Suggested maintenance services include:
-
Visual inspection of cables, connectors, and housing.
-
Testing output and RCD protection.
-
Cleaning and clearing debris from charging ports.
-
Firmware and smart system updates.
Even offering a simple annual check-up service can significantly increase your long-term revenue per customer.
4. Partner With Fleet & Commercial Clients
Fleet electrification is expanding rapidly across the UK, and businesses are seeking reliable installation partners. By targeting small fleets, offices, and depots, you can secure larger, ongoing contracts.
-
Provide site surveys and capacity assessments.
-
Offer bundle deals on multiple installations.
-
Supply fleet-grade charging cables and accessories.
Corporate clients value reliability and scalability — and partnering with a trusted supplier ensures you can deliver high-quality components for every installation.
