Solar Powered Charging Stations

During the extend power outages in Manahattan following Superstorm Sandy:
. . . everybody was looking for a place to charge their phones.
AT&T ended up providing portable generators and
. . . noticed the opportunity for something more sustainable.

So Pensa in partnership with AT&T is launching charging stations in
. . . Brooklyn’s Fort Greene Park, to be followed by 8 other parks.
Each station has enough USB ports to charge 6 phones at once.
. . . Energy is provided by 3, 15-watt solar panels and
. . . stored in lithium batteries inside the station.
