CIMC Won the Tender for the World’s Largest Robotic Parking Building with an Annual Turnover of 180,000 Units to Help Domestic Vehicles Go Overseas

Recently, CIMC IoT, a subsidiary of CIMC Group, won the bid for the process tender section of Lianyungang International Automobile Green Intelligent Logistics Centre Project (hereinafter referred to as: Lianyungang Project), which is a national logistics hub and a key support project for supplementing weak points, and another major transportation new infrastructure project won by CIMC IoT after the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge Hong Kong port artificial island automated parking project.

The project mainly serves the roll-on roll-off automobile import and export business in Lianyungang, with a planned 5,200 parking spaces, all using AGV robot automatic parking. After completion, it will not only become the first robotic parking lot at the port, but also the world’s largest robotic parking lot. Empowered with intelligence, CIMC once again takes the lead in the global intelligent parking industry.

Lianyungang Port is the largest seaport in Jiangsu. Since 2022, Lianyungang Port has taken advantage of its strategic position as the starting point of the New Asia-Europe Continental Bridge and international hub port to rapidly develop its rolling stock automobile business. On 26 November 2022, the number of vehicles exported from Lianyungang Port exceeded 200,000 and is expected to reach 350,000 by 2025. Its trade has covered over 40 countries and 100 cities globally. Lianyungang Port ranks among the top three in the country by automobile export volume.

Efficiency is key at the ports. With the integration of technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, artificial intelligence, and autonomous driving, the car park management system can be intelligently dispatched. Before a car arrives at the port, the car park management system will receive an inbound instruction from the port management system, and can pre-allocate a parking space. Based on the port operation plan, the car park management system generates a vehicle outbound plan, and the intelligent dispatch system will lock the outbound vehicle. The vehicle can be taken out earlier or moved to a closer parking space, reducing the outbound time, and achieving efficiency through intelligence.
