2023: Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation creates a unified parking space system and digital registers of parking spaces

On September 11, 2023, it became known that the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation is creating a unified parking space system and digital registers of parking spaces. For this project, the ministry attracted the subordinate Agency for Road Transport (Rosavtotrans). Read more here.

2021: Production of the first Russian automatic two-level parking lots has begun

On November 16, 2021, Rostec announced the start of production of automatic two-level parking lots for residential complexes and shopping centers. The state corporation claims that this is the first such domestic system. Read more here.

2020: The world's first commercial parking lot where cars park without a driver has been launched

In mid-October 2020, Mercedes-Benz, Bosch and commercial garage operator Apcoa announced the launch of an automatic car parking (AVP) system in the P6 garage of Stuttgart Airport. According to the automaker, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class 2021 sedan will have an Intelligent Park Pilot parking autopilot built into it, which will allow the car to park without the driver's participation on a command transmitted from a smartphone.

2019

The number of sensors for smart parking in cities has reached 1.3 million

In early June 2020, Berg Insight released research data on the smart parking market. Analysts report that in 2019, the number of wireless ground and underground sensors for smart parking reached 1.3 million worldwide.

Europe and North America together include about half of the sensors installed, while the remainder is almost entirely owned by the Chinese market. Major smart parking markets also include Australia with New Zealand and, to some extent, the Middle East. New technologies were faster in introducing the private parking segment than city municipalities, and account for most of the installed devices.

The world's leading supplier of smart parking sensors is the Netherlands-based company Nedap, which has a 16.3% global market share. The top three also includes the Chinese firm Fangle and the French SmartGrains, which have an advantage in domestic markets. Other significant suppliers are Australian suppliers Smart Parking and Frogparking, European companies Onesitu, Urbiotica, Worldsensing, CommuniThings and Intercomp, and North American suppliers CivicSmart, PNI, Fybr, Nwave Technologies and Streetline. The top 10 suppliers account for about 50% of smart parking sensors worldwide.

Despite the fact that technological problems have already been resolved, so far the growth in this segment has been mainly due to the initiative of private parking. However, municipalities are conducting pilot projects and are starting to deploy smart parking lots on the streets of many cities. Deployment off the streets is still difficult as it requires good network coverage and long distance connectivity.[1]

How China solves AI parking problem

By December 2019, about 250 million cars appeared in China, but the number of parking spaces far from meeting the real needs of urban residents. On average, there are fewer than 0.8 parking spaces for every car in China, with shortages particularly acute in Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities. Therefore, China solves parking problems using artificial intelligence and other technologies.

Founded in 2006, for example, Sunsea Parking provides a range of services including city parking management, parking planning and design, and smart parking. This Beijing company holds about 1% of the market and is one of the leaders in the parking industry. Its goal is to increase the number of parking spaces from more than 200,000 (including 3,800 at Hongqiao Airport) to 1 million in the next five years.

When we first started studying this sector four years ago, we decided that there are much more opportunities here than in Europe and Japan, "said one of the company's managers and added that the growth in the number of car owners, deregulation of the market and technology improvements will continue to contribute to the growth of the parking industry.

Despite the shortage of parking spaces in Beijing, some major cities, such as Shanghai, are already close to saturation point and require innovative ways to manage parking. Big data, card work and mobile payment systems are increasingly used in China to monitor parking, and these technologies, along with "stereo-flash" systems, avoid traffic jams in urban areas during peak hours. "Stereo garage" means a mechanized parking system in which a robotic elevator lifts vehicles to several layers.

With an investment in Sunsea Parking, Warburg Pincus hopes to bring cutting-edge technology to its intelligent parking management system, which should improve the enterprise's profitability over time. Intelligent AI-based parking systems use cameras and sensors to collect data on parking spaces in real time. The system continually analyzes data including vehicle movement and type, peak hours and car change rates in parking spaces to predict future trends. Combined with digital payment methods at entry and exit points, an intelligent parking system saves drivers time and reduces operator costs.

Warburg Pincus managers believe the market potential of the intelligent parking system is huge and growing rapidly, therefore, all companies operating in this industry seek to tap into all existing land and make the most of the latest technology to increase parking space. For example, founded in 2015, AIpark introduced an AI-based system for managing roadside and garage parking lots, which allows drivers to book parking spaces in advance, offers navigation services and uses robots for automatic parking.

An automatic parking management system called AI Park One has already been installed on more than 2,000 parking lots in cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Tianjin. In addition, there is an AirParking operator that uses an Airbnb-like model. The company provides parking services through a mobile app, offering unused space from some of the country's largest developers.[2]
