In Rome, the columns that find the squatters of the stall
Hard life in Rome for the squatters who provide stalls for electric cars. The war on car park attendants, including EV owners, is all about technology. A sensor capable of detecting illegal stops.
The council of the capital led by the mayor Roberto Gualtieri usher in the era of zero tolerance to whom does not respect the green label. At a recent meeting of the municipal government, the regulation to get the underground power station network off the ground.
Out of 1600 requests for the installation of the charging stations, only 800 were successful
It takes one shock for the electrical infrastructure of Rome. The numbers of column installations speak for themselves: “Until today on 1600 requests received in the Mobility Department only 800 were successful. A demonstration of a systematically incomplete“.
These are the words of the administration that with the new regulations for the installation and management of the columns “he tried to eliminate distortions and delays which hindered the previous regulation“. Of course it didn’t work, one out of two requests got stuck in the municipal bureaucracy.
One also thinks of the harmony of the landscape, given the location of Grande Bellezza in the city, with a international competition to choose the design of the column branded with the “Roma” brand.
Anti-abusive sensors, interoperability and tariff blow for those who occupy the stall
Let’s see the various changes in the regulation approved by the council: “The competitive procedure who will choose the operators on the basis of the technical quality of the product and the technical and IT services it offers. It will be guaranteed interoperability between operators, in order to facilitate recharging operations even in the columns of an operator other than your own“.
Choices to make life easier for those who have invested in the battery car. But there is also a stick for those who do not respect the rules: “They will be placed in the new stalls sensors capable of withstanding abusive in the charging stalls“. The big brother electric. But that’s not all: “In order to discourage the use of charging stalls as mere parking spaces even for those who have to recharge the vehicle, special rates“. Here it is a question of applying the Highway Code “for those who leave the car parked on the stalls after one hour from the end of the recharge“.
The administration wants to replace all the old columns
Last but not least decision: “they will be replace all the old columns and old power sockets to modernize the charging capacity and speed. Finally, the columns will be inserted in the Maas system of Roma Capitale“.
“The new regulation – he has declared the councilor for mobility Eugenio Patanè – it will bring a radical change of pace in the installation and management of electricity columns “. The administrator refers to the choice of the European Parliament “to eliminate endothermic motor vehicles from our cities by 2035“.
Concrete goals? “Spread the columns throughout the city reaching 5 thousand stalls by the Jubileefacilitate and simplify the life of citizens in the use of devices, discourage abusive and improper use of recharging spaces“. These are the intentions with the hope that the ever-present snares and snares will not stop the change.
