Beam Global Launches 160 mph Wind-Rated EV ARC™ Sustainable EV Charging Infrastructure Products
September 29 2023 - 6:00AM
Beam Global, (Nasdaq: BEEM, BEEMW), the leading provider of
innovative sustainable products and technologies for electric
vehicle (EV) charging, energy storage, energy security and outdoor
media, today announced its third generation EV ARC™ product line of
solar-powered EV charging systems with a wind rating upgraded to
160 mph. EV ARC™ infrastructure systems are designated by the
federal General Services Administration (GSA) as disaster
preparedness response and recovery products due to energy security
and resiliency capabilities during grid outages and natural or
man-made disasters.
Beam EV ARC™ systems are independently rated to withstand winds
of 160 mph and can continue to operate in up to 9.5 feet of
flooding. Each system generates, stores and delivers its own clean
electricity and can be equipped with any quality brand EV charger,
and an optional Emergency Power Panel which provides 120v and 240v
outlets for use by first responders or other authorized users when
utility power is not available. Earlier this year, EV ARC™ systems
in Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas, which were in the direct
path of Hurricane Idalia, continued to provide vital EV charging
and emergency power throughout the storm.
“Beam’s mission-driven culture goes beyond sustainable EV
charging and energy storage to address the global problem of energy
resilience faced by electric grids worldwide,” said Desmond
Wheatley, CEO of Beam Global. “We believe 25% of EV charging
infrastructure should be off-grid and powered by locally generated
and stored electricity so that we can ensure that we have redundant
sources of fuel during the rapid transition to electrified
transportation and growing threats from climate change and other
externalities which can put our centralized grid infrastructure at
risk. The United States has a Strategic Petroleum Reserve to ensure
that we do not run out of diesel or gasoline. Now Beam Global’s
products are providing the beginnings of a Strategic Electric
Reserve so that we have the same level of security as we transition
to the electrification of everything.”
According to Climate Central U.S. data analysis, about 83% of
all reported power outages from 2000-2021 can be attributed to
weather-related events, with the most recent decade from 2011-2021
experiencing 64% more major power outages than the previous decade,
with an estimated $150B-$200B in costs to U.S. business every
year.
GSA’s Disaster Purchasing Program expands purchasing beyond
federal agencies and allows state and local governments to buy
directly from GSA Schedules to facilitate disaster preparation,
response or major disaster recovery. Available now, the next gen
Beam products can be purchased by local, state and federal agencies
off GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Contract
Number 47QSWA21D0006 which simplifies the procurement process
and ensures best pricing. Small, medium and large businesses can
purchase the same disaster-rated products directly from Beam Global
at BeamTeam@BeamForAll.com.
