Paying for electric vehicle charging
Charging is mandatory at charging stations and a charging session must be started when parking. Simply connecting the cable is not sufficient. Electric vehicles parked at a charging station without charging will receive a fine. An exception applies to the parking area at Kjelhuset, which is reserved for those with approved special parking due to health reasons, where charging is not mandatory. Note that the parking fee must also be paid while charging. At NTNU charging stations all rechargeable motor vehicles (vehicles fully or partly powered by an electric motor) may charge for a fee.
You must use other solutions than the SmartPark app to pay for EV charging. Download the PDF with payment information.
You can pay for charging via app or SMS. For questions about payment for charging contact phone 91914554 or email support@meshcrafts.com.
