Beijing regulated parking services freely occupy charging parking spaces, parking fees and electricity fees will be charged

  Some parking spaces are still "occupied" by fuel vehicles

  Under the scorching sun, Mr. Guo drove an electric car with only 20% of the power left to find charging piles in various parking lots.

Finally, I found a parking lot equipped with charging piles, but found that there was a fuel car parked in the only charging parking spot.

In desperation, he had to continue looking for other charging parking spaces.

Finding a suitable charging pile has become the biggest headache for electric vehicle owners.

  From July 1, Beijing’s "Parking Lot (Gardage) Operation Service Specifications" (hereinafter referred to as the "Specifications") was officially implemented. According to the new regulations, parking and electricity fees will be charged for freely occupying charging parking spaces.

The new regulations have ushered in the dawn of electric vehicle owners. However, reporters from Beijing Youth Daily visited many parking lots in Beijing and found that fuel vehicles still have a "dominant position" phenomenon, and few parking lots charge overtime occupancy fees.

  new rule

  Occupy parking spaces for electric vehicles at will and open "penalties"

  The "Specifications" clearly require parking administrators to conduct classified parking guidance. For fuel vehicles that occupy electric vehicle parking spaces and electric vehicles that have not left after more than one unit of time after charging, they can adopt a stepped price standard to charge.

  This is the first time that clear requirements have been set for electric vehicle charging facilities and berths.

In addition, the parking lot can charge a tiered price standard for fuel vehicles that occupy ordinary parking spaces for electric vehicles and electric vehicles that have not left after charging for more than one unit of time. The maximum charge per unit time does not exceed the current charging standard for ordinary parking spaces. 150%.

  Once the "Specifications" was launched, it was manually praised by many electric car owners, and some netizens even said that "a direct increase in parking fees can finally cure those car owners who often dominate."

  30 charging parking spaces are occupied, only one is charging

  At 2 pm on July 6, a reporter from Beijing Youth Daily came to Joy City in Xidan, Beijing. There are parking areas on the third and fourth floors of the underground, with a total of 808 parking spaces, of which there are only 4 charging parking spaces on the third floor.

There are not many charging parking spaces in the parking lot of China World Shopping Mall. The parking administrator in the south area of ​​the mall told reporters that there are more than 500 parking spaces on the second and third floors of the south, and there are 7 charging parking spaces.

The reporter noticed that these 7 charging parking spaces all have electronic ground locks. The owner can put down the ground lock to park the car by scanning the QR code on the charging pile.

However, no new energy vehicles were being charged at the scene. Instead, a petrol vehicle was parked in the charging parking space.

  “The ground lock may be broken, so there are fuel vehicles parked on it.” The parking administrator explained that in order to prevent fuel vehicles from parking in charging parking spaces, the mall has installed ground locks. If there is a situation where fuel vehicles dominate, the administrator Will also call the owner to resolve.

  There are more than 750 parking spaces and 30 slow-charging parking spaces in the parking lot of the North District of China World Trade Center. Some parking spaces are equipped with ground locks.

At 3 pm, the reporter found at the scene that even if nearly 1/5 of the ordinary parking spaces are vacant, all slow-charging parking spaces are parked, most of which are fuel vehicles, and only new energy vehicles are being charged. One.

In addition, the above-mentioned parking lot administrators, such as Xidan Joy City and China World Shopping Mall, all responded that the parking lot does not have manpower, financial resources and related technical support for the problem of "oil trucks occupying space and increasing parking fees".

  Technology does not realize the function of occupying space to increase parking fees

  On July 7, the reporter visited a parking lot with charging piles near Chaoyang Road.

The parking lot has a total of 350 parking spaces, including 16 charging parking spaces.

At noon, only one of the 16 charging parking spaces was in use, and one was occupied by a petrol vehicle.

  Citizen Ms. Li told reporters that the parking lot often occupies parking spaces in the evening of working days, which is difficult to solve.

In this regard, the parking lot manager clearly stated: "That is not ours, we will take care of the parking, no matter what else."

  Different from the aforementioned commercial districts, in a public toll parking lot near Chaoyang North Road, East Fifth Ring, more than 100 ordinary parking spaces have been fully parked, while only a few of the 50 tram charging stations in the parking lot are in use. in.

The administrator told reporters that the parking lot was built in 2017, and the charging pile was newly built in 2019.

Each charging pile is equipped with a camera. If the charging is over and more than one time unit has not been driven away, an additional charge will be charged.

“But it’s useless for fuel vehicles, and they don’t charge them. The levers and charging piles for parking at our door are not synchronized. The current technology is not able to achieve the function of increasing parking fees by occupying space for petrol vehicles.”

  breakthrough

  The most effective way to implement penalties is technical

  A staff member of the Static Traffic Management Office of the Beijing Municipal Commission of Transportation said: "The "Code" that came into effect on July 1 is a recommended local standard and does not have compulsory enforcement." However, he also said that the introduction of the "Code" will affect the parking industry. Have greater guiding significance.

  Gu Dasong, executive director of the Southeast University Transportation Law and Development Research Center, believes that although the introduction of the "Code" has no enforcement force, the direction is good.

  He believes that, in fact, how the "Code" is implemented depends to a large extent on the decision of the owner or property owner.

  Gu Dasong said that many companies have already invested in the market to alleviate the endurance anxiety of some new energy car owners, but the blind investment has been neglected, which is just a waste of resources.

More importantly, the issue of how to revitalize the stock can be monitored in real time by strengthening supervision or using some intelligent means to monitor which piles are occupied by fuel vehicles.

  For example, Beijing has implemented a new version of the "Electric Vehicle Charging Station Operation and Management Regulations" since April 1, which requires charging station operators to "guide fuel vehicles not to occupy dedicated charging parking spaces."

According to requirements, some parking lots in Beijing have begun to use technical means to design more efficient charging piles.

Compared with manual guidance, "technical guidance" is more effective.

"After the entry restriction is achieved, the next step is actually to persuade the fully-charged vehicles to leave. In fact, the mobile phone reminds you to increase the charge or a person is responsible, which can be resolved." Gu Dasong said.

  In addition, he took Yancheng, Jiangsu as an example. The city included the division of new energy parking spaces in public parking lots into the scope of "dedicated parking spaces" and included them in the scope of public security traffic police law enforcement. Failure to leave in time can be handled in accordance with the violation of the stop, which will produce relatively good results.
