## Importance of Developing EV Charging Infrastructure in Coin Parking Lots
To achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, the widespread adoption of EVs and the development of charging environments are urgent priorities nationwide. The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry aims to install 300,000 EV charging ports by 2030, emphasizing the need for enhanced public and destination charging facilities. Parking lots play a crucial role in expanding EV charging infrastructure due to the effective utilization of dwell time.
Previously, coin parking lots primarily served as 'places for temporary parking.' However, with the advancement of EV adoption, coin parking lots are beginning to gain new value as 'places for charging.' The installation of chargers not only caters to traditional parking users but also attracts 'drivers who visit for charging,' creating new visitors. Consequently, coin parking lots are evolving from mere parking infrastructure into 'hubs that create touchpoints with EV users.'
For installation sites, this development is expected to yield secondary benefits such as acquiring new customer segments, driving traffic to surrounding facilities, and revitalizing the local area. Our company will continue to proactively promote the introduction of EV charging facilities in coin parking lots with these changes in mind. We will co-create new possibilities for coin parking lots in the EV era with our partner companies.
## Features of Terra Charge
Terra Charge is a service that provides a one-stop solution from EV charger introduction to operation. Its plans, which are free of initial and maintenance costs, allow for easy installation, reducing the burden on facilities. Through a mobile app for charging reservations and payments, and 24/7/365 call center support, we provide reliable services to EV users.
The chargers installed this time are 6kW Level 2 chargers that can be used simply by scanning a QR code with a smartphone, without needing an app (guest mode compatible).
Furthermore, we will renew our EV charging app 'Terra Charge' for both iOS and Android versions this fiscal year (Spring/Summer), realizing a more intuitive and user-friendly design and operability.
