Permit occupancy of hydrogen charging stations in urban parks and promote installation within the green belt

Deputy Prime Minister Hong Nam-ki reveals at the 5th Big 3 Promotion Meeting for Innovative Growth
Increased the mandatory installation ratio of electric chargers for new buildings to 5% in 2022

[투데이에너지 조대인 기자] In order to solve the inconvenience of users due to long-distance expedition charging and long waiting due to the lack of installation of hydrogen charging stations in comparison to the supply of hydrogen vehicles in urban areas, the occupancy of hydrogen charging stations is permitted, the location of hydrogen charging facilities in the green belt is expanded, and the construction of a complex hydrogen charging station is built. Review the easing of the construction area calculation under the law

In addition, the ratio of mandatory installation of electric chargers for new buildings will be increased to 5% in 2022.

On the 25th, Deputy Prime Minister Hong Nam-ki and Minister of Strategy and Finance presided over the ‘5th Innovation Growth Big 3 Promotion Meeting’ at the Export-Import Bank of Korea and made this announcement.

In order to achieve the goal of this year’s 300,000 eco-friendly vehicles era, support for the purchase and charging of eco-friendly cars and’convenience support’ was evaluated as urgent, and ten tasks centered on charging, using and parking were intensively reformed to improve the convenience of eco-friendly car users within this year. I decided to go out.

First of all, in the case of the charging sector, it was decided to improve regulations such as abolishing the installation area limit for electric vehicle charging facilities (within 20% of outdoor parking spaces → abolished), mandatory opening of public chargers, and permitting installation of hydrogen charging stations in urban parks and green belts.

In addition, since the current registration standard for automobile maintenance business is based on the internal combustion vehicle standard, the facility standard will be relaxed so that electric vehicle maintenance centers can register even if they do not have the equipment necessary for maintenance of the internal combustion vehicle because the burden of installing unnecessary equipment is not small.

At the same time, for convenient parking, the parking area for eco-friendly vehicles was expanded (over 5% of off-streets and public buildings) and parking was allowed for up to 12 hours in the slow charging area.

To support this, the revision of related laws, enforcement decrees, and enforcement regulations will be promoted as soon as possible.

Detailed tasks in the future car mobility field are to prepare safety inspection methods and standards suitable for electric and hydrogen vehicles to enhance the safety and spread of eco-friendly vehicles, and to expand the pressure for hydrogen vehicle charging and to increase the supply base for hydrogen car park sports facilities. Allow the construction of charging stations.

To lay the foundation for the spread of commercialization of autonomous vehicles, special cases for autonomous vehicle pilot operation and an accident investigation system are established, and an evaluation system for electric vehicle residual value and safety is established to activate the battery industry after use.

In order to expand the market for micro-electric vehicles, driving on exclusive roads is permitted, design standards are established to activate personal means of transportation, and road traffic laws are revised, and technology development and advancement to introduce MaaS (Mobility as a Service) is initiated.

Based on the’Regulatory Reform Roadmap’, the installation area, ratio, and opening of electric vehicle charging facilities will be expanded in order to reform the ten core tasks of the environment for using eco-friendly vehicles, such as charging, use, and parking, derived through the’Ten Regulatory Improvement TF’.

The upper limit on the installation area of ​​off-street parking is abolished.

Electric vehicle charging facilities installed as auxiliary facilities of off-street parking are limited to be installed within 20% of the total facility area, but the area restrictions on electric vehicle charging facilities have been abolished.

Expand the mandatory installation of chargers in buildings.

In the case of new buildings subject to mandatory construction of electric chargers, such as apartments with 100 households or more, multi-use facilities, and public parking lots, the installation rate of chargers is low at 0.5%, and the mandatory installation of existing buildings is excluded. It will be expanded to 5% and a new obligation to install 2% will be imposed on existing buildings, starting with public buildings.

The actual application period is expected to be 2025, considering that the time required from building permit to construction after the revision of the law is 2.5 years.

Open public chargers.

Residents of buildings such as row houses or single houses that are not subject to the obligation to install chargers must use electric vehicle chargers installed in public facilities, but due to low accessibility, public chargers built and operated by the state, local governments, and public institutions are required to be opened and the location and opening hours are online. To the public.

The types of chargers subject to mandatory installation will also be expanded.

Although the types of chargers that must be installed mandatory are limited to fast and slow chargers, a high cost burden has been placed on large-scale compulsory installation companies, but the spread of electric vehicle charging facilities will be accelerated by expanding the types of chargers that can be installed to outlet-type chargers in addition to rapid and slow chargers. Make it possible.

The outlet type charger (3kw) takes a long time to charge compared to the existing independent slow charger (7kw), but it can be installed without securing a dedicated parking space, so it has a strength in spreading speed.

The compatibility and safety standards of rapid charging facilities are also maintained.

Although the operating system and communication protocol compatibility of the rapid charger is low, and safety standards for high-capacity (400kW) rapid charger and wireless charging technology were absent, the standard protocol for rapid charging facilities was established and distributed, and safety standards for high-capacity rapid chargers and wireless charging technologies in line with the technological development level. Promote securing.

It plans to accelerate the establishment of hydrogen charging infrastructure.

Compared to the supply of hydrogen vehicles in urban areas, the lack of installation of hydrogen charging stations caused user inconvenience due to long-distance expedition charging and long waiting, but the construction area under the Building Law when hydrogen charging stations were allowed to occupy urban parks, expanded the location of hydrogen charging facilities within the green belt, and built complex hydrogen charging stations. It is planning to review the calculation easing so that the infrastructure construction can be expanded.

Including hydrogen charging stations that were excluded from the permission for occupancy of urban parks, allowing the installation of hydrogen charging facilities in the parking lot of taxis and trucks in development-restricted areas, and relaxing the qualification restrictions so that landlords other than the site owner can install charging stations. Will apply.

In addition, when hydrogen charging stations were added to existing LPG and CNG charging stations, construction was not possible because the building-to-land ratio (building area/site area) was exceeded, but a plan to ease part of the calculation of the building area is under consideration.

Training of maintenance managers for electric and hydrogen vehicle maintenance will also be strengthened.

The Automobile Management Act stipulates the qualification criteria for maintenance managers only at the time of appointment, and after the appointment, there was a limit to strengthening maintenance capabilities such as acquiring new technologies, but new education and regular three-year education for maintenance managers were obligated, and commissioned education and training results from specialized institutions. Establish a management system.

The facility standards for maintenance companies who only want to maintain electric vehicles are relaxed.

Since the maintenance business registration standards are based on internal combustion vehicles, there was an unnecessary burden of equipment and equipment for electric vehicles even at electric vehicle maintenance centers, but if a specialized electric vehicle maintenance center is installed, the facility standards are relaxed so that equipment required for internal combustion vehicle maintenance can be registered without being equipped. I am going to do it.

Abolishing safety training for general hydrogen car drivers such as Necko.

General hydrogen car drivers were also obligated to provide high-pressure gas safety training, which caused inconvenience to hydrogen car drivers compared to ordinary car drivers, such as the inability to drive by proxy, but in consideration of equity with other cars and driver’s convenience, safety training for ordinary hydrogen car drivers was abolished. The driver’s duty was to be maintained.

In order to enhance the safety of using eco-friendly vehicles, it has also prepared measures to improve the system, such as strengthening safety standards, expanding maintenance infrastructure, and enhancing fire response capabilities.

More than 5% of parking spaces for eco-friendly vehicles were secured.

Only when an off-street parking lot is installed by building a complex such as housing site development, more than 10% of the integrated parking lot for light and eco-friendly vehicles should be installed, but from now on, more than 5% of the total number of parking spaces for eco-friendly vehicles should be installed in all off-street parking lots. Zoom in.

In the first half of this year, with the expansion of mandatory purchase of eco-friendly cars in the public sector, it is mandatory to install more than 5% of the total number of parking spaces in order to expand the exclusive parking lot for eco-friendly cars in public buildings such as the state, local governments, and public institutions.

Reinforce the intermittent speed for electric vehicle parking areas.

Electric chargers and exclusive parking area enforcement agencies neglected to crackdown by metropolitan local governments, and the target of crackdown was limited to chargers subject to compulsory installation.However, the enforcement of electrical chargers and exclusive parking zones was lowered to the basic local government to increase enforcement effectiveness, and the crackdown targets to all common chargers To enlarge.

It also eliminates parking inconvenience caused by long-term occupancy of the slow charging area.

Since parking for a long period of time other than the purpose of charging is prohibited only for rapid charging facilities, it is impossible to restrict parking for long periods of time at the slow charging facility.However, parking is allowed for up to 12 hours after the eco-friendly vehicle starts charging at the slow charging facility, and a fine for violation is imposed. I decided to do it.

The government is encouraging the prompt completion of the top 10 regulatory innovation tasks, and is planning to implement prompt legislative and administrative measures by checking the implementation status from time to time.

It is planned to carry out the enactment and amendment of laws and regulations centered on the relevant ministries, finalize administrative tasks within the target deadline, and continue to check whether the implementation is completed through the Innovation Growth Big 3 Promotion Meeting.

In addition, it is planning to discover additional field difficulties through various discovery channels such as holding joint meetings with future car related industry and private associations, and occasional meetings with private companies.
