Charging stations returns to the property
Purchase and repayment time of charging stations
Many properties are considering updating the parking area and getting charging stations. Key issues are the cost of the investment and the repayment period.
We looked at the repayment period in the 220 parking lot, where traditional temperatures were replaced by a snack. The model took into account the effect of ARA support and the cost of purchasing and installation of the ethols. After the ARA support, the start-up cost was € 41,000 (€ 185 per parking space, incl. VAT). The selected pricing has a repayment period of seven years. The following factors are taken into account in the calculation:
Electricity saving for heating use
Loading service returns to the property
Reduced maintenance requirement
Monthly service charges
Benefits for property and users
The service fee paid by the property is starting from € 2.5 per month per parking space (incl. VAT). The advantage of ethols is remote control, reduced maintenance need, and automatic heating and charging management.
For users etolpas offer the following features:
Charging option for electric cars
Remote -controlled heating
Monitoring of electricity use
The property, on the other hand, receives a continuous return from the download service. The flexibility of the ethols allows you to change your service on a user -by -user basis - for example, from heating to charging as the motorist changes.
The possibility of charging cars increases the value of the property, both in sales and in the eyes of users. After the repayment, the additional income of the property will increase, which allows service prices to be reduced.
Loading service returns
By default, the car is driven by an average of 40 km per day, which corresponds to the need for recharging about 11 kWh. In the model, the charging is assumed to be distributed to the home and workplace, with a monthly consumption of 150 kWh.
In accordance with pricing:
The user pays for the download service 10 €/month
The price of electricity is 20 cents/kWh
Based on this, the property accumulates as follows:
10 years 71,000 € when charging is divided into multiple items
10 years € 113,000 if charging is only done in this item
Charging volume has a significant impact on the property's income.
Resource savings and ease of control
Etolpas reduce the workload of the property manager due to automatic permit management and billing. Etolps locking works without keys, and user management is mainly digitally handled. These savings are not included in the calculation, but they reduce the administrative load of the property.
Additional income can also be obtained by opening the otols for public use. The property can decide on pricing and operating times. This option is not included in the model calculation, but it is an important way to increase utilization rate and returns. Caruna's Larausahas is an example of an object where etolpas have also been opened for public use.
The development of an electric car stock
The electrification of traffic is progressing rapidly. According to Trafi, 5 % of first -registered cars in March 2020 were full electric cars and 15 % of rechargeable hybrids. By 2030, it has been estimated that their total share could be about 14 %. At the site, 5 % of the cars already had electric cars, and the modeling was expected to continue in the same way. In this case, in 2030, 15 % of the area's cars would be downloadable.
In a property where charging options are available, the share of electric car drivers has increased much faster than general development.
Eco -timing and heating savings
It is possible to introduce eco -timing in Etolpa, whereby the heating time is determined by the outdoor temperature. The model assumed that all users take advantage of eco -timing and that the heating service is free for them. The savings calculation is based on Kaisaniemi's temperature data from 2010-2019 in October-April, when the temperature is below +5 ° C. The weather details of Tampere and Oulu were also included. In the model, the car was heated five times a week, and the heating need was distributed for 24 hours to take the temperature fluctuations into account. The heating power was determined by 1800 W, covering both indoor and block heating. The timing of traditional temperature was assumed to be two hours.
Etolpa's eco -timing works as follows:
+5 ° C - heating time 30 min
0 ° C - heating time 60 min
-5 ° C -heating time 90 min
-10 ° C -Heating time 120 min
-15 ° C -heating time 150 min
The model did not calculate heating savings at temperatures above +5 ° C, which makes the results more realistic, but slightly reduces total percentage savings.
The results show that eco -timing brings the greatest relative savings in Helsinki, where on average 56 % compared to traditional timing. In Oulu, the corresponding savings are 44 % . It should be noted that the colder the weather, the less relative savings. At the same time, however, it is ensured that the car warms up sufficiently. After all, the amount of electricity saved in kilowatt hours is almost the same in different cities, even though the savings percentages differ.
In addition, the remote control of the otolpan adds value to users, which is not directly evaluated in the financial savings calculation.
