Gowanus empty lot becomes modern Con Ed energy hub
Charging stations for public, power storage for high-demand ahead
Con Edison and a business partner plan to turn an empty lot in Brooklyn into an energy hub with a battery electric storage system and 18 publicly available electric vehicle chargers.
Con Edison has issued an award letter to Centrica Business Solutions, which has clean energy projects in Europe and North America, for a battery system and EV chargers at 223 Nevins St. in Gowanus.
This project will be the first in New York City that combines energy storage and electric vehicle charging.
