What are Emission Charges?

Emission charges are additional fees that some parking operators apply to vehicles based on their emissions, usually targeting those with higher emissions. The aim of this surcharge is to promote greener vehicles, contributing to healthier urban environments and better quality of life for both residents and visitors.

RingGo supports Emissions-Based Parking, allowing different towns and cities to incorporate these charges as part of their parking strategy.
