The governor of Yeonggwang-gun started 2025 with an integrity pledge for the glory of integrity. Yeonggwang-gun (Governor Jang Se-il) began his duties by signing an anti-corruption and integrity pledge on January 2nd to celebrate the new year of 2025.
The anti-corruption and integrity pledge pledges as a public official in Yeonggwang-gun to become an example in creating a fair and just society through an honest work attitude and eradication of corruption. Active reporting of matters ▲ It includes prohibition of receiving money or entertainment and compliance with the code of conduct for public officials.
Starting with the Integrity Pledge signature campaign, Yeonggwang-gun plans to strive to establish public service discipline and improve integrity by actively preventing corruption through integrity practice campaigns and anti-corruption and integrity education for public officials, as well as proactive and leadership audit activities.
In particular, this year, we plan to focus on identifying and improving the causes of corruption to improve integrity.
We plan to implement policies to create a culture of integrity, such as the production of integrity content so that public officials can directly participate, and to improve the indicators of departments with excellent integrity, and to implement a trustworthy public service society by utilizing prevention-centered preemptive public service inspection and a military audit control system that communicates with residents. .
Meanwhile, in order to maintain and manage safe and efficient electric vehicle charging facilities, Yeonggwang-gun evaluated and selected a private business operator last July and announced that it would begin charging for charging from January 2, 2025.
So far, Yeonggwang-gun signed a business agreement at the end of July, completed site inspection and design at the end of August, was selected as a zero-emission vehicle conversion brand project by the Ministry of Environment in mid-September, and began installation work in early November, and has been proceeding without a hitch.
We have built 104 fast and slow electric vehicle charging infrastructures in 42 locations, including Sportium, Meeting Square, Guwoo Market parking lot, and each town/village office, which are frequently visited by county residents. Through this, various problems such as ▲concentration of free charging stations ▲deterioration of charger quality ▲parts supply and demand difficulties due to aging ▲delayed response to A/S ▲military financial burden ▲absence of charger management center ▲lack of fire and safety accident guarantee during charging, etc. are resolved and the convenience of residents is increased. I plan to do it.
The main points of the newly installed private charging facility are ▲national funding (brand project to convert to zero-emission vehicles) and private investment ▲construction of an integrated center 24 hours a day, 365 days a year ▲business liability insurance (personal, property) per accident in the event of a fire or explosion at a charging facility Guarantee within KRW 1 billion, annual limit of KRW 5 billion ▲Real-time monitoring and remote action in case of failure ▲Continuous quality management ▲Inside distribution box It is expected that charging conditions for electric vehicles in the Yeonggwang area will be dramatically improved by complementing the installation of stick-type fire extinguishers and building mobile apps and providing specialized services.
The charging fee has been negotiated to be cheaper or the same as the charging fee notified by the Ministry of Environment. After registering as a member, you can set and use (enter vehicle number, personal/corporate credit card, charging member number) without issuing a separate card.
Currently, the private company has completed the construction of the charger and auxiliary facilities, and is awaiting the opening of KEPCO and inspection of electrical safety construction. Charging services can be used in the order that KEPCO’s opening is completed, and it is planned that private companies will be required to operate and manage charging facilities for the next five years.
In particular, by installing both government funds (zero-emission vehicle conversion brand project) and private investment without investing military funds, the effect of expanding the charging infrastructure and reducing the military budget was achieved. In 2025, the number of users and on-site conditions will be closely monitored by private companies. We plan to do our best to secure government funding and private investment and expand charging infrastructure in consultation with .
The head of the Energy Industry Department said, “Direct investment by private charging operators will open opportunities for new business creation, such as significantly improving electric vehicle operating conditions and establishing a one-stop system,” adding, “We will achieve carbon neutrality through continuous charging infrastructure and expansion of the supply of eco-friendly vehicles.” “We will take the lead in realizing this and create an energy transition city,” he said.
Parking Cloud Co., Ltd. is Korea’s No. 1 parking platform company with a network of more than 8,677 directly managed and affiliated parking lots nationwide, and operates about 5,000 electric vehicle charging facilities nationwide. Any electric vehicle driver can use services such as checking the location of charging stations and making payments without issuing a separate membership card through Parking Cloud’s ‘iParking’ app.
