Parking Lot Begets Battery Storage & EV Charging

What’s happening? ConEd, partnered with Centrica Business Solutions, is flipping an empty parking lot in Brooklyn into a new concept battery storage and EV charging center.

Why is this important? The hybrid facility will house 5 MW/ 15MWh battery system holds enough power for about 5,000 apartments for four hours of peak summer usage & offer  18 direct-current fast chargers 

How will this be important? COVID resulted in more open parking lots, so why not flip a parking lot…
