Mr. Huang works in Hanyang. It is almost 7pm when he returns to the neighborhood after work every day. At this time, there is already a charging parking space on the roadside. It's hard to find, and what makes it difficult for him to accept is that most of the parking spaces where new energy vehicles should be parked are fuel vehicles. "Every time I see that charging parking spaces are often occupied by fuel vehicles, and then I look at the few cruising kilometers left on the odometer, I feel very angry." Mr. Huang said that one day in early July, he drove under the scorching sun. Electric cars with only 30 kilometers of range left went back and forth on this road looking for charging piles. It turned out that more than 20 charging piles were occupied by fuel vehicles, and only a few new energy vehicles were parked on the seats and were not charging. . In desperation, he had to call 114 one by one to contact the car owners, and finally asked for a fuel vehicle to drive away, which finally solved his urgent need.

Mr. Huang said that he had thought of many ways to charge. "I have contacted the charging pile management company and reported it to the roadside parking fee collector." But what disappointed him was that both sides They all said they couldn't control it.

On the afternoon of July 19, a reporter from Jimu News came to Xingguo North Road, where Mr. Huang’s community is located. On one side of this road, the government has set up more than 10 special parking spaces for new energy vehicles. On the large screen of the charging pile in each parking space, it says "Special Parking Space for Charging Vehicles" and reminds: Non-electric vehicles are not allowed to occupy the parking space dedicated for charging electric vehicles... Otherwise, they will be fined 3 points and 200 yuan.

The reporter found that despite so many reminders, the dedicated parking spaces for new energy vehicles were still full of fuel vehicles. What is puzzling is that there are many empty ordinary parking spaces near these new energy parking spaces.

New energy car owners hope that all charging piles can be used rationally

The reporter visited and found that the situation of new energy parking spaces being occupied is relatively common among new energy car owners. The main reason for "sighing at the sight of parking lots" is that the new energy parking spaces in some places have not been put into use after being built, which makes car owners even more "anxious".

Within a range of 300 meters near Tongxin Garden East Station on Jianshe Avenue in Jiang'an District, the reporter found 3 charging points marked as "special charging stations for new energy vehicles", but among the nearly 30 planned There are no charging piles installed next to the parking spaces. The reporter called Wuhan Environmental Investment Company to ask when the charging piles will be installed. The staff said that if the charging piles are not installed after the parking spaces are planned, it may be due to power issues and other reasons. "The actual reason needs to be reported to the relevant departments for verification."

In addition to the fuel vehicles occupying new energy parking spaces and the new energy parking spaces not being powered on, the reporter Another situation was discovered during the visit. At 8 pm on July 19, a reporter found in the parking lot near Xudong Xiao Road at Gate D of Wangjiadun Subway Station in Hongshan District that new energy charging piles were installed in more than ten parking spaces in the entire parking lot, but most of the parking spaces All occupied by fuel vehicles.

One of the fuel vehicle owners told reporters that there is another parking lot next to the parking lot. Both parking lots belong to the same property company, and fuel vehicles and new energy vehicles are in the two parking lots. Parking is available inside.

Mr. Xu, a new energy car owner, lives near Wangjiadun Subway Station and works in Hankou. "I'm lucky today! I found a charging pile as soon as I came here. I often have to wait until early in the morning to get a parking space." Mr. Xu told reporters that this is Lijia The nearest charging point, but the property company did not distinguish between the parking of new energy vehicles and fuel vehicles, resulting in many charging piles not being used rationally. "We have no control over how the property management company charges, but since each parking space is equipped with a charging pile, it is to provide convenience to nearby new energy vehicle owners. I still hope that the charging pile can be used reasonably," Mr. Xu said. Subsequently, the reporter called the State Grid 95598 service hotline. The customer service staff said that the parking lot is managed by the property owner or property company. The power supply party can only be responsible for the management of charging piles and cannot interfere with whether the parking space is occupied by fuel vehicles.
