What is the PowerShift register?
- The PowerShift register is the authoritative source for information regarding vehicles which are eligible for discount from the Transport for London congestion charge scheme.
- Approval is based on the particular combination of vehicle (make, model and model year), equipment (either LPG, NG or Hybrid) and manufacturer or converter. Please check all these details carefully if you are considering buying a vehicle with the aim of receiving the congestion charge discount.
- Full electric vehicles are not included on the PowerShift register as they are already exempt from the congestion charge scheme; owners still need to register their vehicles with Transport for London.
- The Energy Saving Trust maintains the PowerShift register on behalf of Transport for London. Vehicle eligibility is controlled by a system of approval. Prospective applicant companies should contact the Energy Saving Trust.
- Vehicles, equipment and manufacturer or converters can all be removed from the register for a number of reasons.
Click here to access the register, and then click on the vehicle manufacturer you wish to view. There is a separate file which provides the contact details of the approved suppliers and converters.
Contact details for vehicle or conversion suppliers are available on the Approved Companies List.
