The UK MOD's adoption of Beam Global's solar-powered EV charging systems aligns with broader governmental efforts to reduce carbon emissions. This move supports the UK's commitment to net-zero emissions by 2050 and showcases the military's role in driving sustainable practices.
The EV ARC™ systems' ability to operate off-grid and provide auxiliary power could prove important in emergency situations and remote operations. This dual functionality not only enhances the military's operational resilience but also demonstrates the versatility of renewable energy solutions in high-stakes environments. The success of this deployment could influence policy decisions, potentially accelerating the adoption of similar technologies across other government departments and allied nations.
EV ARC™ systems to provide dynamic EV charging and auxiliary power for vital MOD electrical equipment
SAN DIEGO, Aug. 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beam Global, (Nasdaq: BEEM), a leading provider of innovative and sustainable infrastructure solutions for the electrification of transportation and energy security, has deployed the first EV ARC™ solar-powered EV charging systems for the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) at several British Sovereign Bases on Cyprus. This is the first EV ARC™ customer shipment out of Beam Global’s new European facilities. As previously announced, the UK MOD ordered
“We’re really happy to have recently procured ten Beam solar-powered EV ARC charging systems,” said Commanding Officer of Transport Unit HQ BFC, Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Taylor. “These portable charging stations fit within a standard parking space and will harness the abundant sunshine from Cyprus and provide a clean energy source, significantly contributing to our environmental responsibility and enhancing our emergency resilience. They will support electric vehicles on Sovereign Bases Area camps during daytime or nighttime and will at the same time remind everyone of the importance of innovation to enhance capabilities by utilising our planet's solar power.”
“The Beam Team, Europe has integrated the EV ARC product line into the manufacturing facilities with excellence and impressive speed. In the past quarter, we have shipped products to Bosnia, Croatia, Cyprus, Greece, Herzegovina, Montenegro, Romania, and Serbia,” said Desmond Wheatley, CEO of Beam Global. “This first ten EV ARC deployment out of Beam Europe validates our entrance into the European market - the largest in the world for our products. As the year progresses, we will continue to deliver on the many orders in our global pipeline and to build upon the tremendous momentum that our entrance into Europe has created.”
The Beam EV ARC™ system is a solar-powered, off-grid charging solution that can be quickly deployed without the need for construction, electrical work or utility connections. Ideal for both military and commercial uses, hundreds of these systems are in operation across the U.S., serving the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Department of Homeland Security, other federal and state agencies and a long list of commercial customers. Each EV ARC™ system independently generates and stores clean electricity, supplying power to up to six Level II EV chargers, which can charge six electric vehicles simultaneously. EV ARC™ systems also provide power to electrical equipment through an auxiliary power panel and the UK MOD intends to develop use cases which demonstrate that they can power vital systems without the need to connect to a utility grid or use diesel or gas-powered generators.
In 2023, the UK MOD announced plans to go fully electric with its ‘white fleet’ and set out a plan to see
