Charge and CDTA Launch First Universal Wireless Charging Stations for Electric Bikes

With Partners Shared Mobility Inc and Drop Mobility, the new Charging Station Will Be Used to Charge CDPHP Cycle! Electric Bicycles

AMSTERDAM, NY (July 2, 2024) re:Charge, an NY-based company developing universal wireless charging solutions for electric bikes and scooters, and the Capital District Transportation Authority (CDTA) announced the deployment of a new universal wireless charging solution for electric micromobility bicycles in Amsterdam, NY, in support of CDTA’s CDPHP Cycle! bikeshare program. This pilot program is the first in the US to use wireless power transfer to charge a variety of shared electric micromobility bicycles and includes a charging station with four charging docks installed at Mohawk Valley Gateway Park.

“At re:Charge, we believe that electric bikes, scooters and other types of shared micromobility will play a larger role in transportation, sustainability and equity worldwide,” said Jeff Olson, re:Charge co-founder. “The electric micromobility charging stations that we are launching will help make it possible for more people to ride more bikes more often.”
