46 Total Fast Electric Vehicle Chargers Now Available at JFK, Including 24 New Chargers Installed by Revel at the For-Hire Vehicle Hold Lot 1 West<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey and Revel today announced the opening of an electric vehicle (EV) charging station at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) that more than doubles the airport\u2019s available EV chargers. The 24 new chargers were funded and installed by Revel and Con Edison through its PowerReady program for electric vehicle infrastructure incentives helped. The new charging station is located within the airport\u2019s for-hire vehicle (FHV) hold lot and is accessible via the Van Wyck Expressway or Belt Parkway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The additional chargers help meet growing demand for electric vehicle charging infrastructure at Port Authority facilities, which support the agency\u2019s industry-leading sustainability initiatives. The agency has specified plans to reach its ambitious goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 through its comprehensive net-zero roadmap<\/a>. That goal encompasses both the agency\u2019s own emissions as well as those originating through the wide transportation ecosystem supporting its facilities. Traditional fast chargers will enable the transition of gas-powered to electric vehicles and contribute towards a reduction of approximately 3,720 metric tons of carbon dioxide each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs we work toward a cleaner, more sustainable future, expanding access to electric vehicle charging infrastructure is a crucial step in reducing emissions,\u201d said Port Authority Chairman Kevin O\u2019Toole<\/strong>. \u201cThese fast chargers at JFK are a significant step forward in our broader efforts to support a greener transportation network.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Port Authority and its private partners like Revel are leading the charge in building a net-zero future, and this latest expansion of two dozen more fast chargers at JFK is a major boost in that work,\u201d said Port Authority Executive Director Rick Cotton<\/strong>. \u201cMore access to electric vehicle charging equipment helps advance our sustainability goals and reaffirms our agency\u2019s commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the new Revel charging station at the FHV lot adjacent to JFK Building 141, JFK now hosts a total of 46 EV fast charging ports that are operational at all times, helping to reduce charging wait times and improving traffic flow. Widely available, easily accessible charging infrastructure is crucial in facilitating the shift to electric vehicles. JFK\u2019s 46 EV fast chargers for airport users will benefit both customers and FHV drivers seeking more fast-charging solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to working with the Port Authority at the JFK lot, Revel will install the largest public fast-charging lot near an airport in the nation, with 48 fast charging ports outside LaGuardia Airport to support airport users, FHV drivers and the surrounding community. That lot will be located at 90-10 Ditmars Boulevard in East Elmhurst, Queens, where it is expected to open later this year.<\/p>\n\n\n
