6109 CarCharging Group has received funding from the 6108 New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) to supply, deploy and install EV charging stations throughout New York City. Powered by the ChargePoint Network, the EV stations will be installed in multi-residential buildings and monthly parking garages.

"NYSERDA is pleased to join Gov. Andrew Cuomo in promoting electric vehicles around the state. EVs offer a cleaner alternative to combustion engines, helping to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels and the emission of greenhouse gases," said Francis J. Murray Jr., president and CEO of NYSERDA. "CarCharging will play an important role in supporting the creation of an electric vehicle future in New York."

CarCharging's newest stations, based on a Level II 4824 Coulomb Technologies’ unit, will be installed in high-traffic locations in Manhattan and in Brooklyn, where growing numbers of EV drivers park at home and work, as well as for restaurants, shopping, and entertainment.
