Environmental Systems Co. installs EV Fast Chargers in the City of New Britain
WEST HARTFORD, Conn. – November 19, 2024 –Environmental Systems Co. (ESC), a Fidelity company and leading provider of building technology solutions throughout the Northeast, is pleased to announce the installation of two new electric vehicle (EV) charging stations in downtown New Britain, Connecticut. This installation brings convenient, fast-charging solutions to the heart of the community.
The two state-of-the-art Tritium DC Fast Chargers (DCFC), located on Main Street opposite the Busy Bean Café and the New Britain Police Station, are some of the few DCFC charging stations available in the Central Connecticut region. These chargers can fully power most electric vehicles in just 30-45 minutes at a rate of $0.45/kWh, providing EV drivers with a fast and affordable charging solution.
ESC helped the City of New Britain secure an EV charging infrastructure incentive from Eversource, significantly reducing the total cost of the project for the city.
“We are thrilled to have supported the installation of two new DC Fast Chargers in downtown New Britain,” says Manager of Electric Mobility at Eversource, Sean Tully.“This project will help to make it easier for residents and visitors to embrace clean, sustainable transportation by providing convenient, fast charging solutions. As more people in Connecticut are driving electric vehicles, increasing the charging infrastructure across the state will also contribute to our broader goals of reducing carbon emissions and working towards a clean energy future.”
“We are deeply grateful to the City of New Britain for partnering with ESC to deliver innovative, cutting-edge services and energy-efficient technologies to enhance the well-being and sustainability of their community,” says ESC President, Michael Mullin.
The new chargers support New Britain’s ongoing SMART City initiatives, which focus on integrating environmentally friendly projects into city planning to reduce the overall carbon footprint. This project marks an important step in making the city more sustainable and accommodating for the growing number of electric vehicle users in the area.
