This project, with a total investment of $415,000, marks the 2,000th citywide municipal charging port for electric vehicles, supporting Mayor Eric Adams' plan to enrich Hunts Point with $15 million for electric vehicle technology.
Mayor Adams highlighted the importance of the initiative in revitalizing Hunts Point and reducing carbon emissions, emphasizing the investment in greener, cleaner infrastructure for communities in need.
The 50 kW chargers were installed through collaboration between DCAS, DEP, and Con Edison, contributing to lowering greenhouse gases in NYC with over 5,000 electric vehicles in the city fleet.
DCAS has committed to installing more than 50% of EV charging stations in environmental justice communities, focusing efforts on areas like the South Bronx with historically high rates of asthma.
