Future-Proof Charging Infrastructure for Urban Parking
Located at one of Nuremberg’s major traffic hubs, the “Am Plärrer” parking garage is among the city’s most significant urban parking assets. The objective was clear: to future-proof existing spaces for today’s and tomorrow’s e-mobility demands. PRM chose Wattif as its full-service provider for commercial EV charging infrastructure.
“We see every day that demand for urban charging options is growing: not just among short-term parkers, but also among tenants and fleet users. That’s exactly where we come in, with scalable, operator-friendly solutions,” explains Sales Director Henrik Czech.
Together, the partners established a charging zone with 20 charging points on the second basement level. An additional charging space for mobility-impaired individuals is currently in planning. This makes “Am Plärrer” parking garage the public parking facility with the most charging points in Nuremberg: a true milestone.
User-Centric Charging Experience
Wattif focuses not only on technology, but on delivering a complete charging experience.
For users, this means:
- Destination charging – vehicles charge while parked
- Simple 3-step instructions for an easy charging process
- 24/7 hotline for immediate support when needed
- Integration with all major e-mobility apps and navigation systems
- Custom pricing for long-term parkers, with no overnight blocking fees
Importantly, Wattif fully handles maintenance, monitoring, and user billing. Operators and property owners can rely on a professional, worry-free service, without added administrative burden. “We believe charging infrastructure shouldn’t just exist. It must be visible, easily accessible, and convenient to use. Otherwise, it won’t be adopted,” says Czech. This principle has been fully implemented at the “Am Plärrer” garage.
A Scalable Model for Forward-Thinking Operators
The project’s success clearly shows: The shift to e-mobility starts with infrastructure, and parking facilities form the basis of this. For property owners, EV charging has become a strategic asset—opening up new revenue streams, competitive advantages, and long-term resilience. Wattif offers a scalable, investor- and operator-friendly all-in-one package: from needs assessment and hardware selection to operation, service, and billing.
“We deliver solutions that meet today’s needs while being ready to grow over time: ideal for garage operators, businesses, municipalities, and visionary property owners,” Czech concludes.
