The EV ARC is not just a portable charging station-it’s an off-grid solar power system and stationary storage device that offers EV charging as an option.
The EV ARC neatly sidesteps all these hassles, and once it’s installed, it provides energy at no marginal cost, almost as a bonus. Dealing with these requirements can end up costing more than the price of the hardware, and can cause delays of months or even years. Since then, as charging stations both public and private have proliferated, a major challenge has emerged: installing chargers often involves site preparation, trenching, upgrading utility service, permitting and regulatory approvals…the list goes on and on. When we first covered the company, which was then known as Envision Solar, back in 2013, we immediately saw that its product would be handy for events, disaster relief and other applications requiring a stand-alone energy source that could be set up quickly. This may well be the case with the EV ARC, a solar-powered off-grid charging station made by Beam Global. Q&A with Beam Global CEO Desmond Wheatleyĭuring periods of rapid technological change, it often turns out that certain new products have highly useful applications that few-perhaps not even their inventors-originally foresaw.
