National Grid, an electricity, natural gas and clean energy delivery company serving New York, Massachusetts and Rhode Island, has deployed pole-mounted electric vehicle chargers in Melrose, Massachusetts, according to a press release.

A total of 16 chargers will be installed by mid-summer throughout the city, providing charging access to those without private garages or dedicated parking.

The chargers, which will be owned by the city, will leverage electricity on poles and reduce installation costs compared to ground-mounted stations by 70% by eliminating digging related construction activities.

A customer will use an app to lower the charger for use on their vehicle.
