ST Engineering and NTU Singapore on Monday (8 May) announced the deployment of Singapore’s first integrated Smart Car Park and Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging System, GoParkinTM, on NTU’s main campus.
The new-generation Smart Car Park System allows EV users to park, charge and transact easily on a single mobile app. ST Engineering’s Urban Solutions business will build and operate the university’s campus-wide EV charging network, as part of NTU’s sustainability goals.
Under the NTU Sustainability Manifesto, NTU is committed to decarbonisation and sustainable development, where it strives to achieve carbon neutrality, along with a 50 per cent reduction in carbon emissions by 2035. Providing an EV infrastructure on campus also supports Singapore’s efforts to encourage EV adoption.
The GoParkin Smart Car Park System allows EV users to find available parking and EV charging points at NTU, charge their vehicle, monitor their charging status, and make payment easily through the GoParkin mobile app, eliminating the need for separate parking and EV charging apps.
