EDF Energy is handing customers “two years free driving” in a major boost amid the Cost of Living crisis. EDF is offering £300 to anyone who signs up to its Pod Point Plug & Power tariff before the end of January, the equivalent of almost two years’ worth of free electric driving.
Both new and existing customers can sign-up to the unique electric vehicle (EV) home charger and tariff bundle to receive the £300 bill credit, worth around 12,000 miles of electric driving. ‘Pod Point Plug & Power’ offers drivers the ability to purchase a charger, EDF says.
It relates to the Pod Point Solo 3S, and gives customers up and down the country access to it for a lower upfront cost of just £499 (RRP £1,099), with the remainder of the cost for the charger spread over two years and integrated into the tariff.

The industry-first bundle, developed with Pod Point, a leading provider of EV charging solutions, provides drivers with a more convenient and affordable way to get a home charger to charge their EV, and make the switch to electric driving.
The tariff, priced at £1,383 for electricity only, comes with cheaper overnight electricity at 8.49p per kWh from 12am to 5am for both driver’s cars and homes, saving them money while they sleep, and is backed by zero carbon electricity
To sign-up, customers can visit EDF’s website, and once signed up, EDF will forward details onto Pod Point so they can buy the Solo 3S EV charger from £499. The Solo 3S comes with standard installation included and a 5-year warranty.
Customers must have a smart meter and be opted into half hourly meter readings to be eligible. Once customers have purchased their charger and booked an installation date, EDF will apply the £300 credit to their account within 30 days.
