The Feeling in Here is Electric.

In August 2022, The Parking Spot unveiled its first 100% electric shuttle.

Many of The Parking Spot’s current shuttles run on compressed natural gas (CNG) and are already 20% more efficient than gasoline shuttles. However, using the new electric shuttle will further reduce The Parking Spot’s greenhouse gas emissions by an estimated 45,000 pounds annually.

The Charging Spot

Today, customers flying out of nearly half of The Parking Spot’s markets can enjoy the use of EV charging options.

The Parking Spot will be adding to these charging options over the coming years, both by expanding current offerings in markets such as Austin, Charlotte, Los Angeles, and Salt Lake City, and by introducing new offerings in all remaining markets.

LED Lighting and Controls

The Parking Spot has invested over $1,000,000 in LED lighting. LED lighting is extremely energy efficient and consumes up to 90% less power than incandescent bulbs. This reduction in energy reduces the demand from power plants and decreases greenhouse gas emissions.

11.3 Million Miles Saved Annually

By riding one of our shuttles on that last leg to the airport, The Parking Spot has saved travelers about 11.3 million miles annually when compared to private cars and taxis. This saves over 6,000 tons of emissions which would require 31,000 trees to offset those emissions.* *Reference www.carbonify.com
