Charge your electric car at home in Perth & Kinross, even without a driveway

Perth & Kinross is a diverse and scenic region in central Scotland, known for its historic towns, rural villages, and vibrant communities. From the city of Perth to picturesque spots like Crieff, Dunkeld, and Blairgowrie, the area blends countryside charm with modern living—making it an ideal place for sustainable innovation.

In towns and villages across the region—such as Auchterarder, Crieff, Dunkeld, and Blairgowrie—many properties include driveways or garages, making home EV charger installations both simple and affordable. However, in more built-up areas like Perth city centre, Scone, and parts of Coupar Angus, off-street parking can be limited, making home charging for electric cars much more difficult.

That’s why we created the Kerbo Charge pavement cable channel—a discreet, safe, and cost-effective solution for on-street EV charging at home. It allows you to run a charging cable from your home across the pavement without causing any obstruction. This smart setup can save drivers around £1,100 annually compared to using public charging stations.

Although Perth & Kinross Council hasn’t yet launched formal trials, there’s increasing local interest in smart EV charging options that work for flats, terraced homes, and properties without driveways.

How it works for Perth & Kinross residents

Using a public charger for a single charge can be around £25 more expensive than at home (source: Zap Map), meaning many people are taking risks and having to find alternative solutions when they don’t have a driveway. These photos show how our solution makes charging easy for residents with street parking.

Frequently asked questions from Perth & Kinross residents

  • Our duct takes the Type 2 cable, which is the standard cable for all UK electric cars.

  • Most charging cables are long enough to reach either one space up or one space down from directly outside your house. Still taken? We find most residents just wait until the space becomes free and then move their car over.

  • We can install in to bitumen, paving stones, and brick surfaces.

  • Although the channel is strong enough to withstand the pressure of any UK vehicle, we do not install across roads because it’s not entirely safe for you to be positioned in the roadway while you insert and remove your charging cable.

  • It is possible but not recommended - it involves ground excavation and laying of a concrete base which is often undesirable due to the permanent removal of green space.

  • Yes, we can provide both the duct and the wall mounted charging unit, or just the duct.
