New York City is about to make life easier for EV owners who don’t have access to home chargers.
Known as one of the most densely populated cities in the world, NYC is significantly increasing the number of curbside EV chargers.
The city is rolling out hundreds of new charging points, including multiple DC fast chargers.
Owning a car in New York City is not for the faint of heart, and owning an electric car is no different. As one of the most densely populated cities in the world, simply finding a parking spot can be a challenge, let alone one that also happens to have a charger next to it.
But things are about to change, as NYC is gearing up to add nearly 1,000 new charging points across its boroughs, including 600 curbside chargers. The city’s Department of Transportation said the expansion will happen over the next three years across all five boroughs, significantly expanding the PlugNYC charging network, which currently offers 88 Level 2 charging points.
