Beam Global, a leading provider of innovative and sustainable infrastructure solutions for the electrification of transportation, energy security and smart city infrastructure, announced today that the City of Dallas has placed an order for seven additional EV ARC™ sustainable electric vehicle (EV) charging systems. This marks the City’s third EV ARC™ deployment and fourth overall Beam Global purchase.
The systems will be used to charge the City’s growing fleet of EVs, including electric pickup trucks. Each EV ARC™ generates and stores its own clean electricity and can be deployed without construction, electrical work, or a utility connection, providing immediate, off-grid EV charging and backup power in emergencies. The purchase was made via the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Contract.
“This is an excellent example of our pre-negotiated contracts making it as easy for our customers to buy our products, as our products make it for them to deploy EV charging infrastructure,” said Desmond Wheatley, CEO of Beam Global. “Our recently renewed GSA contract, and our recently announced Sourcewell contract, enable government organizations to acquire Beam Global solutions without having to go through lengthy and complex bidding processes. They get the fastest deployed charging infrastructure they need in a fraction of the time. The City of Dallas, and many other state and local governments in the United States, are continuing to buy our products – even as the federal government has ceased to do so for the time being – because fleet electrification just makes sense.”
The City of Dallas aims for all new light-duty vehicles and transit buses to be fully electric by 2030 and for its entire fleet to be 100% electric by 2040, as part of its comprehensive climate action plan targeting carbon neutrality by 2050. Beam Global’s transportable, renewable charging solutions enable the City of Dallas’s transition to a resilient, zero-emission transportation future.
