Beam Global Expands Deployments Across Native American Tribal Communities with Eight EV ARC™ Systems in California

SAN DIEGO — Beam Global has announced that the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians has deployed five EV ARC off-grid, solar-powered electric vehicle charging systems in California and ordered an ARC Mobility Trailer to complement the deployment. Together with the three EV ARC systems sold to the Twenty-Nine Palms Band of Mission Indians in Coachella, eight Beam Global EV ARC systems are now deployed across the two California-based tribal communities.

The EV ARC systems deployed for the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians were supported by a California Energy Commission grant to expand EV charging access on tribally owned land, and the systems were purchased through Beam Global's U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) contract. Beam has previously sold solutions to other tribal communities, including Northwest Indian College serving the Lummi Nation in Washington and the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde in Oregon.

EV ARC systems generate and store their own renewable electricity using integrated solar panels and Beam Global's proprietary onboard battery storage, providing EV charging without construction, trenching, a utility grid connection or electrical permitting. The ARC Mobility Trailer ordered by the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians will let charging infrastructure be transported and relocated as needs change. (summary body)
