I have applied and will let the list know how I get on. I already put in the necessary 4mm2 cable and 32A RCB during my self-build specifically for an EV charging point so it will be a simple job for them. A nice feature to have - if it really is free or very low cost - and a nice (house) selling point when the time arrives!
Thanks for the link.
