A vehicle in the underground parking lot of an apartment in Cheongna, Incheon was completely burned due to an electric car fire. <Yonhap News>, ‘In Incheon, where significant damage was caused by an electric car fire in an underground parking lot, the charging rate of fast chargers for electric cars will be limited to 90% or lower. Those who relocate chargers installed in underground floors 2 and below to ground or underground level 1 will be eligible for subsidies.’,
,
, ‘On the 29th, Incheon City announced a ‘Comprehensive Electric Car Fire Prevention Safety Plan’ based on this content.’,
,
, ‘This is to prevent accidents such as electric car fires in the underground parking lot of Cheongra Apartment on the 1st.’,
,
, ‘The comprehensive measures include measures to prevent electric car fires, strengthening firefighting equipment, managing safe charging facilities, managing electric car fire prevention in buildings such as residential apartments, and public transportation management plans.’,
,
, ‘In the first place, 5 billion won will be invested to strengthen firefighting equipment in underground spaces by purchasing low-floor fire trucks, track-type fire suppression robots, and smoke barrier curtains. For 1,682 apartment complexes with sprinklers installed, Incheon City will conduct a comprehensive inspection of the underground parking lots to check the operation status, among others.’,
,
, ‘In particular, to alleviate concerns about overcharging of electric vehicles, the charging rate of fast chargers will be limited to 90% or lower. To this end, Incheon City met with major charging operators on the 12th and reached an agreement on the charging rate limit. Incheon City plans to expand this policy by consulting with small-scale charging operators.’,
,
, ‘If general slow chargers installed on underground floors 2 to 3 are relocated to the ground or underground level 1, subsidies will be provided. This is because firefighting becomes difficult and large-scale damage is feared in case of fire during charging in underground parking lots.’,
,
, ‘If charging facilities are relocated above ground, support will be provided by simplifying the licensing process, and if facilities such as heat detection cameras and fire monitoring systems are introduced in apartments and other buildings, improvement costs will be supported.’,
,
, ‘By next month, Incheon City plans to revise the ‘Incheon City Architectural Committee Operation Standards’ to require the installation of charging facilities on upper floors for joint housing complexes and office-tels with 50 or more units, and to equip buildings on lower floors with fire barriers, water barriers, and fire monitoring closed circuit television (CCTV) systems on a unit basis.’,
,
, ‘Starting next month, Incheon City will prepare a district plan to allow the installation of above ground parking spaces in joint housing complexes, and establish standards for the installation method and safety management plan for electric vehicle parking spaces.’,
,
, ‘For popular electric buses, electric taxis, shared electric scooters, and shared electric bicycles, joint safety inspections will be conducted with the Korea Transportation Safety Authority, and taxi operators will strengthen education on fire prevention.’,
,
, ‘Mayor Ha Byeong-pil of Incheon City said, “As there are significant public concerns about electric car fires, we will thoroughly review and improve the necessary aspects administratively and institutionally to prevent electric car fires.”’,
,
, ‘On the 1st, at an apartment in Cheongna-dong, Seo-gu, Incheon, a fire broke out in a Mercedes-Benz electric car parked in an underground parking lot, causing 87 vehicles to be engulfed in flames and 793 vehicles to be burned. The massive power outage and water shortage caused inconvenience to residents at one point.’,
