Beam Global Receives $1.7M Order from the North Carolina Department of Adult Correction for Sustainable EV Charging Infrastructure Products
February 01 2024 - 6:00AM
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 North Carolina Department of Adult Correction has ordered
19 Beam EV ARC™ sustainable off-grid charging systems and 2 ARC
Mobility™ trailers to enable efficient transportation of the
products.
The Beam EV ARC™ systems are off-grid and powered by renewable
energy, generating and storing their own clean electricity. Each
system is deployed with no construction, no electrical work, no
utility connection and is delivered as a turnkey sustainable
charging solution. Because EV ARC™ systems are flood-proof to 9.5
feet, wind-rated to 160 mph and continue to provide electricity
during blackouts, they are particularly well suited to provide
disaster preparedness for DHS component agencies. The ARC Mobility™
trailer is a specialized hydraulic transport system designed to
efficiently relocate EV ARC™ charging systems without the
requirement for any other equipment or site work.
“Correction facilities and other secure or sensitive locations
can rapidly deploy EV ARC charging systems without disruptive
construction and electrical projects which introduce significant
security risk and can be outright prohibited,” said Beam Global CEO
Desmond Wheatley. “Our ability to have a single person deliver
operational EV charging in minutes instead of months means that
correctional officers do not need to security-clear multiple-member
construction teams or manage security during lengthy projects. Any
secure environment offers an excellent opportunity for further EV
ARC deployments. This is another excellent example of the unique
and valuable attributes our rapidly deployed, low touch,
infrastructure products bring to the EV charging space.”
Government and private fleets are moving to electric vehicles
which are less expensive to operate and maintain, and help achieve
often mandated, zero-emission targets. Sites with physical security
concerns like correctional facilities, both public and private,
need EV charging infrastructure without the risk that traditional
installation projects introduce. Onsite demand for EV chargers to
support new fleet EVs, employee workplace charging and visitor
charging is on the rise. The solar-powered EV ARC™ electric vehicle
charging systems are rapidly deployed with no digging, no
construction, no electrical work and none of the teams generally
required to perform those tasks.
According to the Federal Bureau of Prisons and the Census of
State and Federal Adult Correctional Facilities, there are 4,527
federal, state and local correctional facilities in the U.S., both
public and private. Beam Global anticipates that all such
facilities will require EV charging particularly where mandates
such as the federal government’s requirement that all light duty
vehicles be zero emissions by 2027 are in force.
