SAN DIEGO, June 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Beam Global , (Nasdaq: BEEM ), a leading provider of innovative and sustainable infrastructure solutions for transportation, energy security and smart city infrastructure, today announced the deployment of six additional EV ARC™ solar-powered electric vehicle charging systems for the City of Long Beach, California. The deployment consists of four EV ARC™ systems supporting the City of Long Beach’s electric vehicle (EV) fleet operations and two additional EV ARC™ systems installed at Long Beach Airport for fleet charging.
The EV ARC™ systems generate and store electrical energy on-site, enabling autonomous EV charging that can be rapidly deployed and relocated as operational requirements evolve. The deployment supports the City’s transition to electric fleet vehicles while avoiding the cost and disruption associated with conventional charging infrastructure installation and operation. The City of Long Beach is expanding its EV charging infrastructure to reduce costs, support fleet electrification and reduce vehicle emissions. By utilizing off-grid EV charging systems, the City can add charging capacity where it is needed without increasing demand on existing electrical infrastructure.
“Study after study shows that fleet operators who electrify their fleets save money, reduce downtime and maintenance, reduce emissions, and improve working conditions for their employees,” said Desmond Wheatley, CEO of Beam Global. “Beam Global's EV charging infrastructure products enable fleet operators to scale up charging infrastructure with the lowest total cost of ownership and with the least disruption. They get to deploy EV charging where they need it without going through lengthy design, engineering, construction, and electrical projects, and they get to operate with zero-unit cost for the electricity that they use to fuel their vehicles. We are delighted to continue to assist the City of Long Beach as they execute on their mission to electrify their fleet.”
The deployment further expands Beam Global’s presence in municipal fleet operations and demonstrates continued demand for rapidly deployable EV charging infrastructure across California.
