About the Project
In April 2021 we began the process of upgrading our existing Saltwater Pump House (SWPH) within the Greenpoint Energy Center. Our crews are working to replace the saltwater pump house (SWPH) with a new, elevated facility within our Greenpoint Energy Center located on Vandervoort Avenue between Lombardy Street and Maspeth Avenue. We will also install new hydrants and deluge system. As part of the company’s net-zero commitment to reduce its own emissions, the facility will include solar panels on the roof to supplement electricity for the building. We currently anticipate completing this project in Fall 2026.
Project Benefits:
- A multi-stage resiliency project. The new SWPH is part of National Grid’s overall supplemental fire suppression system that protects the entire Greenpoint Energy Center.
- Installation of new hydrants and deluge system
