18 EV Chargers Installed at City Center Newport News, VA
Smart, Scalable EV Charging Infrastructure in the Heart of Hampton Roads
Go Green Electric recently completed one of the most significant public EV charging infrastructure projects in Newport News, Virginia—installing 18 Tesla Universal Wall Connectors across all four parking garages at City Center, the commercial and dining hub of Hampton Roads.
This project demonstrates what’s possible when advanced EV charging technology is paired with strategic electrical design.
Expanding EV Charging in Newport News Without Service Upgrades
City Center is the heart of Newport News. With offices, restaurants, retail, and high residential density, demand for reliable EV charging stations continues to grow.
Rather than performing expensive electrical service upgrades to each garage, our team engineered a solution that leveraged:
- Intelligent load management
- Networked charging controls
- Dynamic power distribution
- Shared circuit capacity between multiple chargers

By implementing load balancing across all 18 chargers, we were able to:
- Add more charging stations than originally planned
- Avoid costly new electrical services
- Prevent overload of existing infrastructure
- Maximize available amperage safely and efficiently
This is a textbook example of modern commercial EV charger installation done correctly.
Tesla Universal Charging: NACS + J1772 in One System
The chargers installed at City Center are Tesla Universal Wall Connectors, which means they support:
- Tesla NACS (North American Charging Standard)
- Built-in adapter for SAE J1772 universal standard


This makes the charging stations compatible with:
- Tesla Model S, 3, X, Y
- Ford Mustang Mach-E
- Ford F-150 Lightning
- Chevy Bolt
- Hyundai IONIQ
- Rivian R1T / R1S
- Virtually any modern EV
No separate adapters required. Every EV driver in Hampton Roads can plug in and charge.
Powered by the Tesla Network
These chargers operate on Tesla’s network platform, providing:
- Real-time monitoring
- Usage tracking
- Smart energy management
- Remote diagnostics
- Billing integration capabilities
For municipalities and property managers, this provides full visibility and operational control over their public EV charging stations.
99% Uptime and Ongoing EV Charger Service & Repair
Installation is only part of the equation. Long-term reliability is what makes infrastructure successful.
The City Center charging network currently maintains approximately 99% uptime, supported by:
- Proactive monitoring
- Rapid-response EV charger repair service
- Ongoing electrical maintenance
- Firmware updates and diagnostics
Go Green Electric provides complete EV charger service, repair, and troubleshooting for commercial properties, municipalities, and multi-unit developments throughout Hampton Roads.
Why This Matters for Hampton Roads
This project positions Newport News as a regional leader in EV infrastructure.
By installing 18 universal EV chargers in a high-traffic commercial district, the City:
- Supports electric vehicle adoption
- Attracts EV-driving visitors and businesses
- Reduces range anxiety
- Future-proofs public infrastructure
- Demonstrates responsible electrical capacity planning
Scalable, intelligently designed EV charging is essential as adoption accelerates.
