3.5 min read
Since 1970, Earth Day has brought together citizens worldwide to demonstrate support in the fight towards environmental justice. Today, organizations in all sectors continue to make actionable changes to help make our earth a safe and better place to live for all. As a parking industry leader, we believe in providing best-in-class parking solutions to Canadians across the country; however, our mission does not stop there. We are doing our part to be environmentally friendly, from our products and services to our work approach as a whole.
EV Charging Solutions
Did you know that nearly 25% of greenhouse gas emissions are caused by transportation? With Canada’s quest to fully transition to electric vehicles by 2040, we are proud to offer a slew of adaptable EV charging solutions and services that help organizations transition to electric mobility. With EV charging stations on-site at many locations across the country, charging up has never been easier. Our commitment to sustainable energy doesn’t stop there. We have proudly purchased the first of many electric vehicles for our fleet. The car is used frequently to travel between our Toronto offices, all while reducing our carbon footprint.
Shuttle Services and Ridesharing Programs
Ridesharing and shuttle services reduce the number of vehicles on the road, decreasing the number of emissions released into their air from driving automobiles. Encouraging ride-sharing and shuttle services with a rewards program will allow your facility to meet your organizational goals in an environmentally conscious way. We provide specialized parking operations staff who will ensure your visitors arrive at their destination, on time and without hassle.
Solar Powered Parking Meters
You can now say goodbye to high electrical use and output with solar-powered meters. Our leading parking meter solutions always come with solar panel integrations, allowing your parking meters to operate autonomously using solar power and wireless communications. It's the little things that make a huge difference.
Certified Series & EnviroLink Program
Precise ParkLink’s Certified Series program™ is the ultimate economic and sustainable approach to meeting your on-site parking technology needs. Our exclusive program diverts approximately 1,950 tonnes (3,900,000 pounds) of waste from landfills each year. An extension of Precise ParkLink's EnviroLink program – an initiative committed to minimizing our environmental impact - the Certified Series program is a significant investment in reconditioning parking meters and their components. This unique program allows us to certify approximately 90% of returned material to the manufacturers' quality standards and specifications.
Energy-Efficient Lighting
LED lighting uses significantly less energy compared to fluorescent and incandescent lights. That is why we use LED lighting throughout our facilities and offices to help lower our energy consumption.
Painting and Signage
Having an in-house sign shop and construction team means we can control the products and production methods used at your parking facility.
Precise ParkLink has and will always be committed to sustainability. Our reduced energy consumption and minimal waste production methods provide superior technology and functionality, all while reducing our carbon footprint.
