AT&T announced Sunday that it will be installing more solar-charging stations in New York City.

The move is part of the company's Street Charge project, which is aimed at providing connection in an environmentally-friendly way, according to Tech Times.

The wireless carrier started the project last year, placing charging stations in different parts of New York State.

"AT&T Street Charge grew out of a need for a sustainable power source during Superstorm Sandy and took on a life of its own when we deployed more than two dozen solar-powered units around the city last summer," said Marissa Shorenstein, president of AT&T New York State.

Users will be able to charge any handheld device with a USB, Micro USB, 30-pin connector, or Lightning port at the stations, PC Magazine reported.

"We're excited to expand the program this year to more locations and longer periods of time so that anyone who needs a charge on the go can find one," Shorenstein added.

45 stations will be available across all five boroughs of the city throughout the summer. Those who are not customers of AT&T can also use the service, which is free.

The company will work with the state government to make these stations available to the public, Tech Times reported.

"As the warm weather approaches and New Yorkers take to the outdoors, they will be able to utilize the AT&T charging stations along with public Wi-Fi at many parks and beaches," said Robert Garafola, NYC Parks Deputy Commissioner for Management, Budget and Public Programs.

The Street Charge units are designed to work both in the sun and the shade, and during the day and at night. During the day, three monocrystalline panels collect energy from the Sun to charge batteries. This allows the units to charge batteries of devices even when the Sun isn't out.

Manhattan has charging stations in Central Park, Pier 15, Union Square, and other areas, PC Magazine reported. Queens has stations at Rockaway Beach and Flushing Meadows Corona Park, and The Bronx has them at Orchard Beach.

Brooklyn stations include Coney Island, Brighton Beach and Brooklyn Bridge Park. Staten Island's locations can be found at South Beach and Midland Beach.

"New Yorkers will now be able to stay charged and extend their visit to some of the city's most scenic places," Garafola said.
