One of the new "green" ambulances?

I have heard that the FDNY is spending a significant amount of money on a "going green initiative" and placing "charge stations" around the City . From what I interrupted, some sort of roadside pillar or fire alarm box looking thing  where ambulances normally sit on an available status when not on a run. Here the ambulance can be plugged in to run accessories, ALS refrigeration,  air conditioning, etc rather than run on high idle...or even run at all. Specifically in Queens and Manhattan to start. 

 

Is this the first round? Has anyone seen the specs?

Here's an article that was sent to me on the new technology:

I'm surprised there isn't a solar panel component to it.
