Go Zero Charge Smart 7 FAQs
How much does the Go Zero Charge Smart 7 cost installed?
The Go Zero Charge Smart 7 starts at £595 for the unit. Typical UK installation adds £350, bringing the gross total to around £945. If you qualify for the £500 OZEV grant (renters, leasehold flat owners, landlords, or no-driveway homeowners via the on-street scheme), your installer deducts it from the invoice — net cost approximately £445. Standard homeowners with private driveways are NOT eligible for any grant and pay the full £945.
Is the Go Zero Charge Smart 7 OZEV approved?
Yes. The Go Zero Charge Smart 7 is on the OZEV approved list and eligible for the £500 grant when installed by an OZEV-authorised installer. This applies to all four active 2026 grant schemes — but eligibility depends on your housing situation, not the charger. Standard homeowners with driveways have NOT been grant-eligible since 2022.
Does the Go Zero Charge Smart 7 support Intelligent Octopus Go?
Not natively. The Go Zero Charge Smart 7 doesn't support Intelligent Octopus Go. You can still use it with the standard (less optimised) Octopus Go tariff. For best off-peak savings, consider Ohme, Zappi, Andersen, or Hypervolt instead.
Solar PV integration on the Go Zero Charge Smart 7?
Yes. The Go Zero Charge Smart 7 works with home solar PV. It can prioritise solar charging when surplus is available, though Zappi remains the best-in-class option for solar households.
Who's the Go Zero Charge Smart 7 best for?
Best for: driveway, renter, landlord.
