Hugo Neu’s Hackensack Avenue “Complete Green Street” at Kearny Point — designed to manage stormwater and toxic pollutants, prevent flooding, lower urban heat, and improve pedestrian and multimodal safety — just advanced to the next level with the launch of a multi-class Level 3 EV FAST CHARGING HUB(180 kW), open 24/7 for cars, medium-duty, and heavy-duty vehicles.
By combining nature-based green infrastructure with high-powered clean transportation infrastructure, we have created one of the most advanced, resilient, and community-centered mobility hubs in the nation — a 21st-century model of next-generation, decentralized, and distributed infrastructure urgently needed to offset and mitigate the limitations of our aging and deteriorated 20th-century systems.
Each of the 180 kW fast chargers has the capacity to deliver enough power to supply over 150 homes, meaning this hub could also help support grid stability and offset impacts during extreme weather events — reinforcing community resilience while delivering reliable clean transportation.
This integrated infrastructure hub is more than innovative, adaptive infrastructure upgrades; it is a catalyst for economic opportunity and job growth. Additionally, Hugo Neu and the NJ Reentry Corporation’s newly awarded green workforce training grant from NJEDA will leverage these and other GI and EV installations to teach and expand a next-generation workforce, ensuring equitable pathways to high-quality jobs in clean water, clean energy, and sustainable transportation infrastructure.
This clean and green transportation infrastructure hub delivers:
✅ 180 kW ultra-fast EV charging for all vehicle classes
✅ Green street design that manages stormwater, filters toxic pollutants, and reduces heat
✅ Greater resilience to flooding, heatwaves, and climate extremes
✅ Increased energy security, opportunities for grid stability support and blackout prevention, and equitable, sustainable transportation options
✅ Economic opportunities and local workforce development
