Beam Global | ABC News Envision’s EV ARC™ Provides Off-Grid Power and EV Charging at Covid-19 Emergency Facilities @BeamForAll | Uploaded April 2020 | Updated October 2024, 22 minutes ago.
The EV ARC™ is off-grid, solar-powered and transportable, which means it can be easily re-deployed to locations with an increased need for EV charging or emergency power. It can also be deployed into environments where power is needed but a connection to the utility grid is not available, such as surge facilities, pop-up testing centers and emergency shelters. Diesel generators have traditionally been the go-to source of power for these requirements, but the combination of exhaust and noise pollution make them less desirable than the silent and emissions-free electricity provided by the EV ARC™ products, which are now being transported to facilities engaged in the city’s response to the coronavirus. Using electric vehicles powered by the sun at these facilities further reduces local airborne pollutants which could cause additional harm to those with respiratory health concerns. The power delivered by the City’s EV ARC™ units is free in contrast to the option of renting generators and buying liquid fuels. The City of Oakland took an early lead in preventing the spread of COVID 19 with a stay at home order placed on March 17th, two days earlier than the statewide stay at home order was enacted.
