Maverick Construction to Lead Infrastructure Installation for NYC Curbside EV Charging Buildout
The company will support it’s electric in installing 600 new curbside chargers across all five boroughs over three years.
Maverick Corporation has been selected to lead the design, construction, and installation work for its electric’s newly awarded contract to build New York City’s permanent PlugNYC curbside EV charging network.
What Happened
Maverick will provide engineering and construction services for the project, which aims to replace the city’s current pilot infrastructure and install an additional 600 curbside chargers over the next three years. The contract was awarded to its electric by the City of New York and the New York Power Authority (NYPA) in August. Charger installations will specifically target neighborhoods with high concentrations of Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC) drivers and limited off-street parking.
Why It Matters
The buildout supports the city’s Green Rides Initiative, which requires all Uber and Lyft trips licensed by the TLC to be electric or accessible by 2030. Diarmuid Clancy, President of Maverick EV Services, noted the company’s long-standing relationship with NYPA and local entities for EV infrastructure design. Nathan King, co-founder and CEO of its electric, emphasized that Maverick’s decades of experience in "Make Ready" work were crucial for their previous collaboration on a first-of-a-kind buildout for the City of Boston in 2025, stating that this expertise is essential for delivering what he described as the largest curbside charging buildout in the country.
The Bottom Line
Maverick’s involvement marks a significant step in New York City’s transition to on-street EV charging, leveraging established partnerships to meet regulatory deadlines for ride-hailing electrification.
