Power Up Your EV at Home in Westmorland and Furness – Even Without a Driveway

From market towns to coastal streets and rural villages, Westmorland and Furness is seeing a steady shift toward electric vehicles. Public chargers are improving, but for many drivers, they’re still inconvenient, unpredictable, or expensive. Charging at home remains the most practical and cost‑effective option if you can make it work.

For households with driveways or private parking in places like Kendal, Ulverston, or Barrow‑in‑Furness, EV charger installation is often straightforward and unlocks the benefit of low‑cost overnight energy. But a large number of homes across the area rely on on‑street parking, particularly in older terraces, town centres, and village streets. Until now, that’s been a major barrier.

Our cable gully solution changes that. By safely routing the charging cable across the pavement, it allows EV owners to charge directly outside their home without creating clutter or trip hazards. It’s a practical answer for streets that weren’t designed with electric vehicles in mind and it can reduce charging costs by up to £4,000 a year compared with relying on public chargers.

Westmorland and Furness Council are currently planning a trial and so if you want to be the first in line, join our waiting list today, and we’ll notify you as soon as EV charger & cable channel installations are available.

How it works for Westmorland & Furness residents

For drivers across Westmorland and Furness, relying on public EV chargers can quickly become expensive – often adding around £25 to the cost of a full charge compared with home charging (source: Zap Map). In towns, villages and rural streets where driveways aren’t always an option, EV owners are often left with no practical alternative. The images show how charging can be done right outside your property without cluttering pavements or creating trip hazards, even in areas where space is limited.
