About this grant

The Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Fund supports local authorities in England to plan and deliver electric vehicle chargepoint infrastructure, with a particular focus on residents who do not have off-street parking. The page publishes the funding allocations and project status updates for the programme, rather than an application call itself. LEVI funding has two components. Capability funding helps local authorities recruit and retain the staff and skills needed to plan and deliver chargepoint infrastructure. Capital funding supports the delivery of chargepoints. Allocations for capital were confirmed for financial years 2023 to 2024 and 2024 to 2025, and capability funding levels are published for financial years 2022 to 2029. The page links to a methodology note explaining how allocations are calculated, and to documents listing funding amounts by local authority. Project status updates for capital funding are recorded on the page, with the most recent updates dated 30 April 2026 and 30 July 2026. The page also explains how local authorities can apply for LEVI funding, with a link to guidance.

About this sector

Electric mobility funding supports electric vehicles, charging infrastructure, battery supply chains and fleet transition for buses, vans and trucks. Public authorities buy vehicles and charge points through tenders, while grants back pilots and manufacturing. Applicants usually need site plans, grid capacity checks and an operator for the finished assets.
