Our claims explained
You’ll save up to 70% when smart charging with Intelligent Octopus Go compared to a standard tariff
With Intelligent Octopus Go you can smart charge for only 7p/kWh. The average rate of a standard variable tariff, based on the October 2025 Ofgem energy price cap, is 26.35p/kWh.
1- 7/26.35 = 0.73 or 73%
Why should I purchase Octopus Charge?
We've built Octopus Charge for a simple, easy-to-use EV charging experience that doesn't compromise on performance. Simply plug in and relax, your EV will automatically charge when electricity is cheapest and greenest, maximising your savings on our Intelligent Octopus Go, or Drive Pack tariffs.
If you have solar panels, the Octopus Charge uses the electricity you generate to power your EV when your home doesn't need it, helping you make the most of your renewable energy.
We’re building out a whole ecosystem that works together. Getting your EV charger built, installed AND powered by us means everything connects seamlessly (kind of like how an iPhone works so well with a Macbook and iCloud account).
The same team who designed and built our EV charger, train our engineers to install it so they know the tech inside and out. Our engineers work hands-on with the kit every day, and our support specialists speak to customers daily – so they can quickly feed back to the designers, speeding up updates and remote feature improvements.
What makes Octopus Charge different to other EV chargers?
Octopus Charge is designed, installed and supported entirely by Octopus, with no third parties involved. You'll deal with us directly for all your EV needs – including charger installation, getting set up on our smart tariffs, managing your charging through the Octopus Energy app and tech support if you need it.
We’ll also keep your Octopus Charge updated with the latest software and features over time, just like a smartphone. It's charging that actually gets better with age.
How much does Octopus Charge cost?
There are two different versions of Octopus Charge. Untethered without a charging cable £949, and Tethered with a 5m charging cable £1049. Both prices include standard installation.
What is the wait time to get a charger installed?
It takes around 4 weeks on average to get a charger installed. However in some areas it can take a little longer. Our EV team will work with you to find a date that works for you.
Does Octopus Charge work with solar panels?
Octopus charge can detect when your home is exporting electricity to the grid. You can set the charger to charge your EV, when it’s plugged in, and there is more than 6 amps of power available. Most people with solar panels export their excess solar back to the grid or charge their home battery.
Does Octopus Charge come with a warranty?
Yes, Octopus Charge comes with a 3 year warranty, providing peace of mind for years to come.
There is also an option to extend the warranty to 5 years for £79.
