Maverick to Lead Construction of New York City's 600-Charger Curbside EV Network

Maverick Corporation will lead the design, construction, and installation work for it’s electric’s newly awarded contract to build New York City’s permanent PlugNYC curbside EV charging network across all five boroughs.

it’s electric is a pioneer of curbside EV charging, which has emerged as the solution for EV drivers who don’t have the option of installing chargers at their homes. In August, the company was selected by the City of New York and the New York Power Authority (NYPA) to replace the city’s current pilot infrastructure and install an additional 600 curbside chargers over the next three years.

Maverick will provide engineering and construction services for the project. Charger installations will be targeted at neighborhoods with high concentrations of Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC) drivers and limited off-street parking. The city’s Green Rides Initiative requires that all Uber and Lyft trips licensed by the TLC be electric or accessible by 2030.

“Maverick has enjoyed a long-standing relationship with NYPA, New York State, and local entities for several years, doing the design and construction of EV infrastructure in support of the state’s robust EV charging initiatives,” said Diarmuid Clancy, President of Maverick EV Services. “it’s electric’s leadership in on-street charging is coupled with Maverick’s full Make Ready design, construction, installation and utility coordination capabilities.”

“Maverick was our partner when we did our first-of-a-kind buildout for the City of Boston [in 2025], and their decades of experience were a huge part of getting that project powered and delivered,” said Nathan King, co-founder and CEO of it’s electric. “Now, as we take on the largest curbside charging buildout in the country, having a partner with 30 years of Make Ready experience behind every install is what makes a project like this possible.”
