Design of a business plan for the rental of car parking spaces and vehicle charging points via a digital platform

Abstract

The lack of parking spaces for cars in urban centers is a well-known problem that is slow to be solved, most recently amplified by a new need related to Electric Vehicles (EVs) and places to charge them. This article presents a business plan for the rental of parking spaces and vehicle charging points through a digital platform. Based on the literature review, several articles are explored that address the interaction between business models and technological innovation, as well as innovative solutions to the problem of parking in urban centers, using peer-to-peer (P2P) technology. In addition, pricing strategies and the technical and economic viability of charging electric vehicles using sustainable energy sources are discussed. The proposed business plan aims to create a platform that connects parking space owners with drivers looking for parking spaces and/or charging spots, promoting efficiency and sustainability in urban mobility.
