cable called a “bus” that goes along the parking spaces, allow- ing for new charging points to be easily added even after the parking is fully equipped.
Moreover, BienVEnu not only aims at studying the technical, economical and regulatory challenges of collec- tive housing charging but also sets out to offer a fully functioning and
The project so far
• Five buildings recruited, with a goal of 10. Out of the five, two have now been equipped.
• “Grand Prix du Jury des Trophées de la Transition Energétique” (Grand Jury Prize for the Energy Transition Trophies, held by l’Usine Nouvelle) received in June
• Elected by the public as one of the 47th “100 projects for climate” (out of almost 600 submissions), an initiative by the French Environment Ministry.
• Invited to be presented to the French President and French Environment Minister at the Elysée for the first anniversary of the Energy Transition law, side by side with only 6 other projects
options of collective mobility, in the forms of carpooling and “peer to peer”, a service which allows EV owners to share their own vehicles and/or charging points with others.
ONE YEAR IN, TWO TO GO The partnership celebrated its first anniversary on 4 October 2016, with the inauguration of the first building equipped with the solution. In the 19th arrondissement of Paris, part- ners and guests gathered around the new infrastructure. The residents of the SNI Île-de-
sustain- able electro- mobility s e r v i c e .
EV users liv- ing in buildings
taking part in the project will have the opportunity to recharge right at home, and a car-sharing service will also be available to all residents. They will be assisted in all their EV needs: reservation platform, mainte- nance, simple billing system.
THE CHALLENGE OF ACCESSIBILITY One of the challenges BienVEnu works towards solving is accessi- bility and comprehension. As it is, the public has little access to EVs in France, except for publicly shared cars available in Paris. EV owners have a tough time finding solutions
when it comes to recharging, and prospect owners find it disenchant- ing to think about. French legisla- tion has changed these past years to support EV deployment, but mis- conceptions and little access still constraint it. This is where BienVEnu comes in. Not only does it boost accessibil-
ity for existing users, it is also an opportunity for everyone to become one. With this solution to EV charg- ing at home, BienVEnu makes it sim- pler for everyone to discover (and adopt) electric mobility, from condo- minium owners to private and social lessors. In addition to private charg- ing stations, the project includes a car sharing service, making it easier for residents to familiarize them- selves with electric mobility, and allows them to “test drive” before making a final purchasing deci- sion. BienVEnu also explores other
France building are the first to ben- efit from the solution. The system installed in the building’s parking lot has six charge points for the resi- dents’ electric cars as well as two car sharing charging stations with two available vehicles (a Renault Zoé and a Mitsubishi Outlander). Users/ residents register (at no charge) on a dedicated platform where they can then reserve either of the vehicles for a specific time. “I believe this is the future”, declared the first user of the service during the event. The celebration came after a year
of developing technical solutions and meeting with building manag- ers, finding the right approaches and understanding what did and did not appeal to the different actors at play. This was done by way of a behavioral analysis that will go on for the dura- tion of the project, helping the part- ners adjust and making a real and effective offer come to life.
