New Turnkey Solution Optimises Parking And Charging

The popularity of eCars is growing continuously. To take account of this development, more and more companies are relying on a charging infrastructure on-site at the company location. At the same time, sustainable parking management is required in many places in order to offer available parking spaces to employees and customers. Until recently, companies needed two different providers to implement the associated requirements. This meant increased organizational and time expenditure as well as a poorer user experience due to the need for multiple front-ends and apps.

ParkHere Uses Know-How From has·to·be

The Munich-based technology company ParkHere is specialized in parking space solutions and has taken on this problem. Since 2015 ParkHere has been offering unique IoT hardware and software solutions for companies, real estate, and parking operators for efficient and sustainable mobility. "Loading at the workplace is becoming more and more important. Together with eMobility providers like has·to·be, we optimize the process and can simplify the specific requirements of the corporate environment", explains Felix Harteneck, CEO of ParkHere GmbH.

"ParkHere can thus offer the customer in one frontend, the possibilities for booking parking spaces as well as controlling and paying for charging infrastructure". For this purpose, ParkHere extends its existing software solution to include payment, reservation, and management of parking spaces in combination with charging at the parking lot. The respective company therefor receives everything from one source. A complete solution ready for the first use.
