Core Viewpoint - The mechanical parking systems, which once alleviated urban parking difficulties, are now facing challenges due to the rise of electric vehicles (EVs) and their specific parking and charging needs [1][2]. Group 1: Challenges Faced by Mechanical Parking Systems - Mechanical parking systems have high limitations on vehicle size and weight, making them less effective as vehicles become larger, particularly with the growing prevalence of EVs [1]. - The design and structure of EVs exacerbate parking limitations, as they often require charging facilities that mechanical systems cannot accommodate [1]. - The renovation of existing mechanical parking systems is complicated by bureaucratic processes involving multiple departments, leading to high costs and inefficiencies [1]. Group 2: Recommendations for Improvement - There is a need to accelerate the update of standards for parking facilities, as the existing guidelines have not been significantly revised since 2015, failing to keep pace with the current EV market [1]. - Investment in technological innovation is essential, including the promotion of smart parking technologies such as AGV robots and vertical lifting systems to enhance safety and adaptability [2]. - Exploring diverse operational mechanisms, such as simplifying administrative processes and establishing collaborative funding models involving government subsidies and community contributions, can improve the efficiency of parking facility management [2].
