Harjunsalo Park: Marvea electrified all over 200 parking spaces in Harjussalo Park

Harjunsalo Parkki is a joint parking area of ​​nine housing companies in Harjunsalo, Kangasala. The area will be completed for several years, and by the end of August 2024, three housing companies will be ready.

More than 200 parking spaces will be completed, each of which will have an electric car charger. The site is built by Marvea, and the installation of the equipment in the first phase of regional construction is done by Vera in Tampere.

From the outset, it was clear that the charging of an electric car should be taken into account in some way, and attention was paid to the design stage. The aim was for the parking area to serve all residents as well as possible. Each parking space is equipped with a remote-controlled slow download/heating plug, Etolpa . The device allows electricity invoicing, measurement, remote control car heating, consumption monitoring and slow charging of electric cars at a maximum of 3.6 kW.

It is possible to handle the communication of intelligent ethols on a wireless network, which saves a big amount in the construction of telecommunications. In the case of Harjensalo, the whole is easy to implement as the destination is completed in stages and the wireless network is really easy to scaled. In Harjensalo, in addition to slow charging devices, there are a few more efficient charging devices. In addition to the KWH-based price, an hourly charge will be charged for faster charging. This ensures that residents use faster charging only when needed, and no one can reserve equipment for long periods of time for their own use.

Residents' parking lots and equipment operations are done with EParking system

The EParking system was selected for billing and parking billing and parking.

The EParking system enables simple parking control, leases and electricity charges from residents. “Today, a variety of travel games use electricity, and it is the most fair that it will be charged to every electricity user at a kWH price without burdening the company's cost structure. While the rental of parking spaces is still handled by the same application, you save administrative costs, ”says Jaakko Rautio from Marvea.

The system also takes care of load control, and as a new feature, an eParking can be made on a spot-based billing. Spot pricing is possible if the housing association has signed a stock exchange electricity contract.
