EV fleet charging hub operator EV Edison is launching a flagship charging and fleet services hub on the US East coast.
Strategically located in Kearny, NJ near the Port of Newark, the Holland Tunnel, and key interstate corridors, the site offers EV fleet operators a comprehensive ecosystem. Phase 1 includes 30 high-power charging ports, each capable of delivering 180kW, making it the largest multi-class charging hub on the East Coast. Significant expansion planned for future phases.
The hub offers full-service fleet operations including 24/7 high-security access, ample truck parking and staging, food and beverage services, driver lounge and flexible office space, and public passenger vehicle charging.
“This facility is about more than charging — it’s about enabling next-generation logistics,” said Dr. Shihab Kuran, executive chairman of EV Edison. “We’re addressing the full operational needs of electrified fleets with scalable, high-power infrastructure that’s built to last.”
EV Edison’s site is already powering operations for Einride, the freight technology company deploying electric and autonomous vehicles globally. Einride is staging its vehicles at the site and offering its trucks to regional partners for EV Transport.
“This facility gives us a strategic base to grow our electric fleet in the Northeast,” said Chelsea Thompson, director of operations at Einride. “EV Edison’s infrastructure, location, and operational services make it a natural partner as we expand access to clean freight solutions.”
“Kearny offers the ideal mix of space and power to scale EV charging and support fleet growth,” said David Daly, President of EV Edison. “It’s the perfect platform to drive zero-emission logistics in the region.”
The hub is built on land owned by Hugo Neu Realty, a longstanding New Jersey industrial developer with a deep commitment to sustainability and economic innovation.
“This is exactly the kind of private-sector leadership that amplifies the Board’s efforts to build out a reliable charging network in New Jersey,” said Christine Guhl-Sadovy, President, New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU). “By making high-powered charging available to all types of fleets, projects like this are helping ensure that New Jersey remains a national leader in clean transportation.”
“Moving toward clean, electric cars and trucks on New Jersey’s roads is more important than ever,” Environmental Protection Commissioner Shawn M. LaTourette said. “My DEP colleagues and I congratulate EV Edison on the opening of this major, around-the-clock charging hub in Kearny and their commitment to cleaning up the air and protecting the health of local residents. This project is a win for Kearny and New Jersey.”
With the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching, EV Edison says Kearny’s location and capacity make it an ideal hub for electric transport supporting logistics, media, and fan mobility.
