The Hudson Avenue Generating Station (the Station) was constructed in 1922 and is currently serving as a steam and peak capacity electric generating plant that is owned and operated by Con Edison. The 13-acre facility, located in the Vinegar Hill section of Brooklyn, New York and fronting on the East River, manages over 10 million gallons of petroleum storage capacity including No. 6 fuel oil, No. 2 fuel oil and kerosene. The Station supplies nearly 3 million pounds of steam an hour to Manhattan, as well as electric power for customers throughout Con Edison’s service area.
