Monroe, CT – Verdek LLC is proud to announce the completion of a groundbreaking EV charging installation at 4700 Arthur Kill Rd, Staten Island, NY 10309. Designed specifically for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), this advanced facility sets a new benchmark for sustainable public transit infrastructure in New York City.
A Landmark in Public Transit Electrification
The Staten Island facility, located in the Charleston neighborhood, features a dual-system approach with 12 overhead bus charging pantographs and 9 cabled hand dispenser chargers. These chargers provide a blend of cutting-edge technology and practical solutions tailored for the dynamic needs of public transit operations.
- Overhead Pantographs: Fully automated for seamless and rapid bus charging during operational downtimes, enabling increased route efficiency and reduced environmental impact.
- Cabled Hand Dispenser Chargers: Eight units operate at 150kW, while one delivers 175kW, providing unparalleled flexibility and speed for varying charging requirements.
Driving Sustainability with Scalability and Efficiency
This innovative charging hub was designed to support the growing fleet of electric buses operated by the MTA, ensuring reliable, efficient, and environmentally friendly transportation options for Staten Island commuters. The combination of high-power charging capabilities and future-proofing measures demonstrates Verdek’s commitment to supporting New York City’s ambitious climate goals.
“Our partnership with MTA underscores Verdek’s dedication to delivering sustainable and scalable charging solutions for public transit systems,” said Guy Mannino, CEO of Verdek LLC. “This facility not only supports today’s needs but also anticipates future demands as the city accelerates its transition to a greener future.”
Tackling Challenges with Ingenuity
The installation process at this state-of-the-art facility required overcoming several logistical and technical hurdles, including:
- Strategic Site Layout: Positioning the overhead pantographs and hand dispensers for maximum operational efficiency.
- High-Capacity Power Integration: Incorporating advanced power management systems to meet the requirements of high-output chargers while maintaining grid stability.
- Precision Engineering: Ensuring seamless coordination with existing infrastructure, minimizing disruptions during construction.
The result is a charging station that blends form and function, offering reliable, fast-charging solutions that improve fleet utilization while reducing operational costs.
A Step Towards a Greener Tomorrow
This project aligns with the broader objectives of the MTA to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality across the region. By supporting the transition to zero-emission public buses, Verdek continues to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of urban mobility.
