EDF Energy is handing customers a free £300 boost now Christmas and the New Year is out of the way. Motorists could receive a £300 bonus when signing up for EDF’s Pod Point Plug & Power tariff, the energy giant has confirmed.
EDF says both new and existing customers can take up the deal to receive the hefty £300 bill credit, which EDF claims is worth around 12,000 miles of EV driving. This announcement comes as Britain has become Europe’s biggest electric car market for the first time in 2024, with the highest number of EV registrations.
Rich Hughes, Director of Retail at EDF, said: “We’re excited to start 2025 with big savings for drivers by offering them an even better deal on the Pod Point Plug & Power tariff. By spreading the cost of a charger over two years, we already make it easier for customers to manage typically high upfront costs.

“Now, with an additional £300 back upon signing up, the costs are even lower. We all know driving electric will reduce our carbon footprint, and our aim is by offering more deals like this to help customers save cash in the process, we hope it’ll encourage more drivers to make the switch.”
The move from EDF -which is rivalled by EON Next, Ovo, Octopus and British Gas – is an “industry first”, it has said. The Pod Point app also lets users manage their home charging effortlessly from their phone, EDF has also confirmed.
12,368 free energy miles is based on an EV achieving 3.5 miles per kWh and charging with an off-peak rate of 8.49p per kWh. EDF has also warned exit fees may apply. Exit fees apply if you cancel the tariff within two years, it has said.
