The City of Pueblo, Colorado, has implemented Beam Global’s EV ARC™ off-grid, solar-powered electric vehicle (EV) charging systems to support both public use and city fleets. The deployment, funded through a U.S. Department of Energy Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) rebate, aligns with Pueblo’s goal to be powered by 100% renewable energy by 2035. These systems provide a grid-independent solution, generating and storing electricity via solar power.
Key Highlights:
- EV ARC™ systems are part of Pueblo’s no-cost charging initiative, available to the public through September 2024.
- The systems will also power city fleet vehicles, including those used by the Pueblo Police Department and Parks and Recreation.
- Beam Global’s patented BeamTrak™ sun tracking system enhances energy production by up to 25% compared to fixed solar arrays.
- The deployment supports Colorado’s state goal of 940,000 electric vehicles on the road by 2030.
- EV ARC™ systems require no construction or electric work, offering cost savings and transportability for emergency use or changing public needs.
Beam Global’s CEO, Desmond Wheatley, emphasized the growing adoption of their products by municipalities nationwide as they strive to meet sustainability goals. “More and more municipalities across the U.S. are seeing the benefits our EV ARC products have to offer as they work to meet sustainability goals laid out by their states,” Wheatley said. “EV ARC systems are an ideal charging infrastructure choice because they are not tied to the grid, which means they require no construction work, electric work or utility bill and therefore reduce cities’ overall costs. Because they are transportable, the systems can be relocated during emergencies or as public charging patterns emerge and change.”
