The Challenge: Underused Car Park, Costly Inefficiencies, and Commuter Struggles

Headquartered in South County Business Park in Dublin, SSE Airtricity has been growing continuously over the years but the size of their car park has remained the same.

With parking space allocations giving on the length of the employees’ service with SSE Airtricity, the company quickly run into several issues:

1. Unfair system causing divide between old and new staff

2. New staff forced onto public transport, often missing meetings

3. Underground car park only 60–70% full daily due to inflexibility

4. Contingency parking site incurring extra costs

“It has made my life as a Facilities Manager so much easier.”

Tackling the Problems to Be Solved

Ronspot partnered with SSE Airtricity to address their pressing parking challenges — from daily underutilisation of spaces to rising costs and employee frustrations. By introducing Ronspot’s parking management platform, including fair booking and credit-based allocation, SSE Airtricity quickly transformed its underground car park into a fully optimised, cost-efficient system. The solution was rapidly adopted by staff, delivering fairness, flexibility, and €25,000 in annual savings.

Problem solving

Here’s what SSE was facing — and how Ronspot solved it:

Problem 1

Unfair allocation

Inflexible parking system giving priority to seniority, leaving newer employees without spaces.

Ronspot’s Solution

Ronspot introduced a fair, credit-based booking system so every employee has an equal chance to reserve a parking space.

Problem 2

Missed Meetings

New staff relying on public transport and often missing important meetings.

Ronspot’s Solution

Employees now book ahead via mobile and have guaranteed access to designated spaces.

Problem 3

Low Utilisation

Underground car park filling only 60–70% daily due to rigid allocation rules.

Ronspot’s Solution

Ronspot enabled flexible scheduling and release of unused spaces, boosting utilisation to 100% occupancy on most days.

Problem 4

High costs

Money wasted on renting contingency parking (€1,000 per space per year) despite empty spaces on-site.

Ronspot’s Solution

By maximising use of the underground car park, Ronspot eliminated the need for contingency parking and delivered €25,000 in yearly savings.

Facility Teams

Before Ronspot, 20–30 parking spaces sat empty daily, costing SSE around €1,000 per spot at a contingency site. With Ronspot, the underground car park now runs at 100% occupancy, saving €20,000–30,000 each year

Employees

For staff members who never parked on site, now having the opportunity to park on site has really boosted their morale. It didn’t take long for staff members to be fully comfortable using the app and their feedback has all being positive.
