Korean IT solutions company LG CNS is expanding its global footprint with its first contracts in the US public sector through projects in New York City and Hogansville, Georgia, the company said Thursday.
LG CNS signed a pilot project agreement with the New York City Economic Development Corporation to build electric vehicle chargers and a control system at the Brooklyn Army Terminal, the city’s startup hub for real-world technology testing.
The company will provide an integrated solution that includes charging infrastructure, energy monitoring and a mobile app for real-time charger availability, reservation and usage tracking.
The system will be powered by LG CNS’s proprietary Cityhub Building platform, which allows monitoring and remote control of energy and facility operations. The project aligns with New York City’s Green Economy Action Plan, reflecting recognition of LG CNS’s capabilities in eco-friendly smart infrastructure.
In Georgia, LG CNS will install smart poles across Hogansville’s downtown and parks. These poles combine street lighting with public Wi-Fi, AI CCTV and environmental sensors, and will also be managed via the Cityhub platform. Additional features include EV chargers, digital signage and emergency call buttons connected to local police.
LG CNS plans to expand the project to nearby cities, including LaGrange and West Point in Georgia.
“This project demonstrates global recognition of LG CNS’s smart city technologies,” said CEO Hyun Shin-gyoon. “We will continue to lead eco-friendly urban innovation in the US and beyond.”
