HOV stands for high-occupancy vehicle. To drive in an HOV lane on the highway, you must have at least two or three people in the vehicle, depending on the road, or you can drive an EV, according to the New York City Department of Transportation. HOV lanes are often less congested than others.
The Drive Electric Long Island coalition is dedicated to encouraging and accelerating the adoption of electric vehicle usage and charging infrastructure on Long Island through advocacy, education, and outreach efforts to local municipalities, companies, residents, and industry stakeholders.
The coalition, led by the U.S. Green Building Council – Long Island Chapter (USGBC-LI), includes a broad range of electric vehicle (EV) stakeholders on Long Island. These stakeholders include Farmingdale State College, PSEG Long Island, the Sustainability Institute at Molloy College, Suffolk County Community College, Emerald Alternative Energy Solutions, Cameron Engineering, the Sierra Club, NYSERDA, Long Island municipalities, automakers, car dealerships, EV infrastructure providers, industry associations, business leaders and EV enthusiasts.
Drive Electric Long Island will accelerate the growth of the electric vehicle market on Long Island by simultaneously leveraging and strategically coordinating all the components of success, resulting in improved air quality, reduced greenhouse gases, reduced transportation costs, and a strengthened utility grid.
Following an extensive process spanning over two years, PISO has proudly won a bid to install six Public Level 2 ChargePoint chargers in Nassau County, New York. This project is a remarkable step toward advancing the EV infrastructure in this suburban county located on Long Island, just east of New York City.
With our help, Nassau County received special funding from the DEC (Department of Environmental Conservation) specifically for zero-emission vehicles (ZEV). The County plans to leverage six newly acquired charging sites to gain insightful data and identify optimal future locations and discern the charging needs within the county.
Our winning bid announcement came in early June 2023 and marked the beginning of a much-anticipated development phase. After years of strategic discussions, proposals, and planning, the project finally broke ground this month. With an ambitious yet achievable timeline, the installation of the six Level 2 ChargePoint chargers is set to be completed by the end of July 2023.
The Level 2 chargers represent a significant upgrade in the charging infrastructure. They offer a more efficient and faster charging solution, which will no doubt enhance the electric vehicle ownership experience for Nassau County residents and contribute to increasing the adoption rate of electric vehicles in the area.
As we look forward to seeing the final results, we are eager to witness how this infrastructure enhancement will impact Nassau County’s overall green mobility landscape. We’re also excited about the potential future support that the County might require in its journey toward a more sustainable and greener future.
At PISO, we believe in the transformational power of electric vehicle technology and the crucial role it plays in creating sustainable communities. This project exemplifies our commitment to fostering an environment that encourages clean energy use and contributes to reducing carbon emissions.
This achievement aligns with our mission to make electric vehicle charging stations more accessible, promoting the transition to a low-carbon transportation model. We express our gratitude to all stakeholders who have made this project possible and look forward to providing continued support in the development of EV infrastructure in Nassau County and beyond.
New York State has seen tremendous growth in electric car registrations since the launch of Charge NY in 2013. Using data from the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), NYSERDA has developed EValuateNY, a tool that compiles statistics on the electric car market, including where registrations are, what makes and models are most popular, and more. Users can drill down for more or details, and the maps and charts are interactive. Registration data can also be accessed through a downloadable Excel file[CSV]. DMV data is typically updated monthly.
EValuateNY also incorporates additional data from U.S. Department of Energy, U.S. Census Bureau, and other sources to provide information about demographics of communities with high electric car ownership, where charging station are located, and more. The full version can be downloaded for use by researchers in either Excel or Power BI formats.
With more than 60 electric car models to choose from, an ever-expanding fueling network of thousands of public charging stations across New York State, and a point-of-sale rebate on your new car purchase or lease, there’s no better time than now to go electric.
New York State’s Charge NY initiative is helping to get more electric cars and trucks on the road by supporting the installation of charging stations and offering the Drive Clean Rebate for the purchase of new electric cars . Whether you’re a consumer, business, municipality, or fleet operator, Charge NY has resources to help get started on your electric vehicle journey.
State Department of Transportation Commissioner Marie Therese Dominguez said, “New York remains committed to increasing the utilization of zero-emission vehicles in support of the State’s greenhouse gas emission reduction goals. We are working with our partner agencies to develop new programs and incentives to increase the utilization of plug-in electric vehicles on Long Island – helping reduce vehicle emissions.”
