City of Los Angeles Places Follow-On Order of Beam Global EV ARC™ Off-Grid Solar EV Charging Systems
December 21 2023 - 5:00AM
Beam Global, (Nasdaq: BEEM, BEEMW), a leading provider of
innovative and sustainable infrastructure solutions for the
electrification of transportation and energy security, announced
that the City of Los Angeles StreetsLA Division placed another
order for solar-powered EV ARC™ charging systems, their largest
order thus far. The off-grid systems will be deployed across
several metro and valley locations and used to fuel the City’s
growing fleet of electric vehicles. The systems were purchased
through the California Department of General Services (DGS)
Contract #1-22-61-16, which serves to simplify the government
procurement process and make select solutions available statewide
at the best negotiated pricing.
The StreetsLA EV ARC™ charging systems each fit in a standard
parking space without taking up valuable parking and are equipped
with two Enel X JuiceBox® Pro EV charging stations. Because they
are off-grid, systems are deployed with no electrical work, no
construction and no utility bill, reducing the City’s costs through
avoided construction, electrical upgrades, operational disruptions
and ongoing utility bills. 100% powered by renewable energy, EV
ARC™ systems generate and store their own clean electricity and
deliver that electricity to power the City’s EVs day or night, and
during inclement weather and power outages. Flood proof to 9.5 feet
and wind-rated to 160 mph, the product improves the City’s energy
resiliency and disaster preparedness. The charging systems are
transportable and can be relocated as charging patterns emerge and
change.
"The EV ARC systems’ off-grid capabilities eliminate the need
for costly infrastructure upgrades and allow cities to quickly
deploy EV charging where it is needed most,” said Desmond Wheatley,
Beam Global CEO. "Because they are transportable, customers have
the flexibility to relocate EV ARC systems as charging patterns
emerge and change. The City of Los Angeles is a leader in
electrification with an admirable goal to have 123,000 EV chargers
by 2030. Rapidly deployed sustainable EV ARC charging systems help
achieve this plan.”
There are 19,502 incorporated cities, towns and villages in the
United States. Beam Global is supplying EV ARC™ systems to a
growing number of them and considers municipal government agencies
as a continued significant growth opportunity. The City of Los
Angeles’ Electric Vehicle Master Plan aims to have 123,000 EV
chargers by 2030. The State of California expects 12.5 million EVs
on California’s roads in 2035 and that 1.2 million public and
shared chargers will be needed by 2030. To help achieve this goal,
the California Energy Commission (CEC) approved a $2.9 billion
investment plan to accelerate California’s EV charging goals.
