Promote sustainable commuting

National Cheng Kung University (NCKU) proactively implements systemic governance policies and physical infrastructure to advance sustainable commuting and low-carbon campus mobility. NCKU codified its commitment by establishing the "Guidelines for the Installation and Management of Electric Vehicle Charging Facilities," institutionalizing standards for charging networks deployed across its Tzu-Chiang, Kuang-Fu, Cheng-Kung, and Li-Hsing campuses to accelerate fleet electrification. To promote public transit and active travel, NCKU operates free weekday shuttle bus routes connecting campus hubs directly to the municipal railway station, curbing private vehicle trips; concurrently, the university runs the regular Campus Bicycle Adoption Program, repairing and distributing free bicycles to students and staff to sustain a cycling-first culture. Furthermore, NCKU deploys the "NCKU e-Parking" smart navigation platform to mitigate cruising congestion and idling emissions, fostering an energy-efficient, accessible commuting ecosystem.

 
  1. NCKU Regulations for the Installation and Management of Electric Vehicle Charging Facilities
NCKU formulated the “Guidelines for the Installation and Management of Electric Vehicle Charging Facilities,” which clearly regulate the installation, application, and usage management of EV charging facilities on campus and in outsourced parking lots. The document specifies application qualifications and review procedures conducted jointly by the General Service Division and the Campus Traffic Management Committee to ensure compliance and sustainability. This demonstrates that NCKU has institutionalized electric vehicle infrastructure development through official regulations, actively promoting green transportation and supporting low-carbon commuting.

  1. NCKU Provides Free Shuttle Buses for Medical Visits and Referrals
To implement green transportation and reduce carbon emissions from private vehicles, NCKU provides free shuttle bus services operating Monday through Friday. With routes directly connecting the railway station to medical and campus hubs, the service encourages university members, patients, and the public to utilize mass transit and integrated shuttles, alleviating local traffic congestion and actively supporting a low-carbon, sustainable commuting ecosystem.

  1. NCKU Provides Free Bikes for Making Everyone’s Commuting More Convenient 

To promote sustainable commuting, NCKU has long organized the Campus Bicycle Adoption Program, in which abandoned or unused bicycles on campus are repaired and then provided free of charge to students and staff. This initiative not only helps members gain convenient green transportation options but also effectively reduces the use of motor vehicles on campus, creating a low-carbon and friendly commuting environment. It demonstrates the University’s institutionalized action to promote a “walking and cycling first” policy and ensures that campus transportation aligns with the goals of sustainability, safety, and health.

  1. Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment
NCKU has established multiple electric vehicle and scooter charging stations across its Tzu-Chiang, Kuang-Fu, Cheng-Kung, and Li-Hsing campuses, providing charging services for both electric cars and motorcycles. This initiative promotes the use of low-carbon transportation, aligns with national energy transition and net-zero policies, and encourages faculty and students to adopt electric vehicles for campus commuting and travel. It demonstrates the University’s concrete commitment to supporting sustainable commuting and green transportationthrough infrastructure development.

  1. NCKU e-Parking: Real-time Parking Space App for Orderly Parking and Shuttle Diversion

NCKU developed and implemented the "NCKU e-Parking" real-time navigation app, allowing campus members and the public to check vacant parking spaces instantly. By optimizing driver guidance, preventing traffic congestion, and facilitating multimodal transit connections, this digital platform effectively curbs vehicle cruising and engine idling on and around campuses, directly reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
