Beam Global has announced that its EV ARC™ systems successfully maintained operation during Hurricane Helene, which recently struck the southeastern United States. Despite extreme conditions, including storm surges of up to eight feet and winds reaching 140 mph, these charging infrastructures continued to function and provide critical power and data capabilities. Notably, the EV ARC™ units at the Bay Pines Veterans Affairs Health Care facility remained operational even while submerged, illustrating their resilience in emergency situations.
Beam Global's thoughtful design of the EV ARC™ systems enables them to withstand severe weather. Equipped with an Emergency Power Panel, these units offer multiple outlets for use by first responders when traditional power sources are unavailable. This capability has earned them recognition as disaster preparedness products by the federal General Services Administration.
