In Q3 2021, NYC DOT announced plans to build a public charging network including 40,000 Level 2 chargers, with 10,000 curbside chargers by 2030.
From June 2022 - March 2023, Voltpost participated in the DOT Studio, a partnership with New York City Department of Transportation and Newlab to pilot the lamppost charging platform in New York City.
During the DOT Studio, Voltpost installed, tested, and refined the charging platform with metering in a DOT parking lot.
The DOT Studio served as the first step in establishing a multi-phase Voltpost partnership to deploy lamppost charging in New York.
“Voltpost has identified a huge problem that needs to be solved in affordable and equitable EV charging infrastructure.” — New York State Senator Peter Harckham
