A study on the electrification of vehicles and the planning storage battery utilizing unused parking space

A Case Study in Otemachi, Marunouchi and Yurakucho Area

Abstract

From the perspective of business continuity in CBD (Central Business District), the construction of distributed energy systems is attracting attention. In response, the government is aiming to build a next-generation distributed power system that utilizes batteries and EV, but the space availability for storing EV and batteries is limited. On the other hand, the convenience of public transportation has required over-maintenance of parking lot obligations and become an issue in the wards of Tokyo. The purpose of this study is to clarify how EV and batteries can be installed in un-used parking spaces to ensure business continuity. This paper calculates the total amount of un-used parking space and examines the introduction of EV and batteries. As a result, disaster resistance was ensured in the deregulated pattern. In addition, by considering the normal use of EV and indirect benefits, the profitability of the project was secured, and the effectiveness of the project was clarified.
