Construction of Solar-Powered Public Parking Lot in Sinwol 6-dong, Yangcheon-gu

Expected Energy and Electricity Bill Reduction Effects

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Yangcheon-gu (Mayor Kim Soo-young) announced that a public parking lot utilizing solar power will be constructed on the site of the former Disabled Independence Workshop in Sinwol 6-dong (1002-18), scheduled for completion in April.

Sinwol 6-dong has poor parking conditions, and due to its densely populated residential area, securing land for a public parking lot has been difficult.

Fortunately, last November, the Disabled Independence Workshop located in Sinwol 6-dong was relocated to Sinwol 3-dong, allowing the site to be used as a public parking lot.

Accordingly, the district started design services in November 2019 for civil engineering, architecture, and electrical solar power sectors, completing the final design in January 2020. Based on this, construction of the public parking lot began on February 24.

The public parking lot is being constructed with a total of 18 spaces, undergoing processes such as temporary construction, electrical wiring and drainage work, structural work, solar panel installation, and floor paving, with completion expected in April.

In particular, unlike existing public parking lots, this will be developed as a 'solar-powered parking lot' by installing solar panels, which is expected to help reduce energy and electricity costs.

Kim Soo-young, Mayor of Yangcheon-gu, said, “This project will be even more meaningful as it is closely connected to the daily lives of local residents,” adding, “We want to actively help alleviate parking inconveniences by continuously establishing small-scale public parking lots throughout the region, including Sinwol 6-dong.”
