City of Lancaster CA Orders Beam Global EV ARC™ Off-Grid EV Charging System for Public Use
August 11 2021 - 8:00AM
Beam Global, (Nasdaq: BEEM, BEEMW), the leading provider of
innovative sustainable technology for electric vehicle (EV)
charging, outdoor media and energy security, announced that the
City of Lancaster in California has ordered an EV ARC™
solar-powered EV charging systems for public use. The system was
funded in part by grants from the Antelope Valley Air Quality
Management District (AVAQMD) and California Governor’s Office of
Emergency Services (Cal OES), and was purchased off Californica
Contract #1-18-61-16 which simplifies the procurement process and
ensures best pricing.
Lancaster’s EV ARC™ unit is equipped with a
ChargePoint™ Dual Port charger and will be deployed at the
Lancaster Baptist Church for public use. The EV ARC™ system
generates and stores its own clean electricity and delivers that
electricity to power EVs, day or night, and during inclement
weather and power outages. The transportable but permanent unit
includes the Emergency Power Panel option for first responder use
during blackouts or in locations where there is no utility
connection available."Change comes slowly, but it will follow where
we lead! The City Council and I are thrilled to announce that we
are partnering with AVAQMD to purchase a BEAM EV ARC charger for
our City," said Lancaster Mayor R. Rex Parris. "Making the switch
to electric vehicles and chargers is a great step towards our goal
to create a more sustainable future for our City.""Partnerships,
such as this, are the best way for us to start implementing the
changes we need for our green future," said AVAQMD Chairman Marvin
Crist. "We need to make consistent changes now in order to better
serve our community and families in the future."The grant funding
was awarded to the City of Lancaster from the Antelope Valley Air
Quality Management District. Requiring no connection to the utility
grid, Beam Global products eliminate disruptive construction
projects, costly electric circuit upgrades and utility charges to
deliver significant long-term savings to city budgets.“We have seen
an increase in orders of Beam’s EV ARC solar-powered EV charging
systems through the California Contract in 2021 as local and state
government organizations start to act on the required EV charging
infrastructure build out,” said Beam Global CEO Desmond Wheatley.
“All 50 states can use the California contract to buy Beam’s
rapidly deployed solar-powered EV charging systems at the same
volume price we offer to the State of California. This order from
Lancaster demonstrates the increased requirement for public
charging as well as for government fleets.”There are over 19,000
municipalities in the United States. Beam Global continues to
expand its municipal customer base as cities transition from
gasoline and diesel vehicles to reduce costs and carbon footprint
and to comply with the increasing number of mandates which are in
place across the US to reduce transportation
pollution.About Beam Global Beam Global is a
