RioCan REIT, one of Canada's largest real estate investment trusts, focuses on creating seamless retail and mixed-use journeys for tenants, visitors and the general public alike. As a parking management and technology provider for many of their mixed-use sites, RioCan has entrusted Precise ParkLink to integrate sustainable electric vehicle charging stations at their newest residential tower at the Yonge Sheppard Centre. This will help RioCan meet the growing need for EV parking solutions for both tenants and visitors.
Our EV charging solutions are a part of the world's largest EV network and transform the day-to-day parking and EV charging interactions. Precise ParkLink was proud to supply, install and support five dual CT4000 EV chargers on the site's main level parking. As an authorized supplier and support specialist for ChargePoint, Precise ParkLink can offer our customers a real turnkey solution. From infrastructure design and system installation to delivering ongoing and official support through the ChargePoint Assure program, we provide our clients peace of mind knowing that their EV charging technology solution is fully supported.
Lui Venir, Director of Client Relations Management here at Precise ParkLink, states, “Integrating EV charging solutions into Yonge Sheppard Centre’s existing parking infrastructure will allow them to meet the growing demand for sustainable parking solutions. As a trusted management and technology provider for several RioCan sites, we are proud to support them in achieving their visitor- and tenant-focused needs every step of the way.”
Rosa Garofalo, General Manager for RioCan Yonge Sheppard Centre, explains that "The launch of PIVOT— our newest residential tower at the Yonge Sheppard Centre is a tremendous milestone for RioCan. The development has created a need for additional EV chargers at the Yonge Sheppard Centre to effectively serve our tenants and visitors. At RioCan, we are consistently looking for ways to improve our value to the general public, our tenants and their customers. Precise ParkLink's years of reliable experience in the commercial parking industry is why we have chosen them as our parking provider for many of the properties we manage. Their ability to supply, install and support smart EV charging solutions supports RioCan's sustainability endeavours while offering the Yonge Sheppard Centre the ability to deliver a desired amenity."
As the country continues to develop an infrastructure that can support electric vehicles' integration, we will do our part to promote alternative transportation methods for multiple business sectors through our EV charging solutions.
