"This equipment, the largest such station on Staten Island, was built in 1975 and today serves about 80,000 customers, ranging from residential to commercial and industrial."
"We need to get this gas at higher pressures, said Paul Cama, lead project manager for National Grid's complex gas construction. And we need to regulate that pressure down to a gas pressure that can be delivered to customers."
"This is a full soup to nuts rebuild, Cama added. We replace basically every piece of mechanical equipment and components within the station. It improves our safety systems, and strengthens the physical structure."
National Grid New York is completing a two-phase replacement of the Grasmere Gate Station on Staten Island, a critical infrastructure for natural gas supply. This station, built in 1975, serves approximately 80,000 customers. The upgrade involves replacing all mechanical equipment to improve safety and structural integrity. National Grid delivers natural gas to 1.3 million customers in Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island, and serves a total of 4.2 million customers statewide. The work coincided with record natural gas demand during a particularly cold winter.
