Beam Global Adds Oil and Gas Multinational to Its Customer List


SAN DIEGO, Sept. 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beam Global, (Nasdaq: BEEM, BEEMW), the leading provider of innovative sustainable products and technologies for electric vehicle (EV) charging, energy storage, energy security and outdoor media, announced that a global top 40 company in the oil and gas industry has begun using the company’s EV ARC™ system to provide workplace charging.

EV ARC™ systems fit in a standard parking space, without reducing available parking, and are equipped with factory installed, ready to charge EV charging stations. Each 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 systems include an optional Emergency Power Panel for first responder use during blackouts or in locations where there is no utility connection available.

“Oil and gas companies are increasingly becoming broader energy companies as they look to a future beyond using oil as a transportation fuel,” said Beam Global CEO Desmond Wheatley. “That transition is happening faster than many initially anticipated so rapid deployment is a driving force for many of our customers in both the private and public sectors. As more organizations experience the extended times, unpredictable costs and operational disruptions associated with in-ground chargers, they increasingly realize the value of simple, rapid deployment of EV ARC systems. We view the oil and gas sector as a very important growth opportunity and we are delighted to welcome this new and very large player to our growing family of happy customers.”

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 customer budgets. They are ideal for locations where there may be hazardous materials below the ground making trenching and foundation work highly risk prone. Because there is no grid connection, EV charging systems are rapidly deployed, readily relocated and can be placed in locations where they are needed most.

The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) provides nearly $370 billion in climate change investments to help reduce carbon emissions by 40 percent by 2030. It provides significant tax breaks for businesses that purchase new or used medium and heavy-duty electric vehicles and new EV chargers. This includes an Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit for 30% of total costs of purchase and installation of charging equipment, up to $100,000 per charger.
