SAN DIEGO, CA – December 5, 2024 – Beam Global, (Nasdaq: BEEM), a leading provider of innovative and sustainable infrastructure solutions for the electrification of transportation and energy security, today announced that its EV ARC™ off-grid charging infrastructure platform has achieved Build America, Buy America (BABA) Act compliance under the manufactured products designation. BABA compliance ensures that the EV ARC™ platform, along with the BeamBike™ and BeamPatrol™ product lines, are manufactured in the United States using sufficient materials sourced from the U.S., meeting federal domestic production requirements.
The BABA-compliant designation strengthens Beam Global’s position as a trusted partner for federal, state, and local government agencies, enabling the company to continue expanding its robust product portfolio offerings to its government customers which include the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, Food and Drug Administration, Missile Defense Agency, National Park Service, the Department of Homeland Security and many other key agencies.
“Achieving Build America, Buy America compliance is a significant milestone for Beam Global and a testament to our commitment to American manufacturing and innovation,” said Desmond Wheatley, CEO of Beam Global. “This distinction strengthens our ability to serve federal, state and local government agencies with sustainable and resilient infrastructure solutions, ensuring that our EV ARC systems continue to lead the way in off-grid clean and secure energy for both military and civilian applications.”
The patented EV ARC™ platform is an off-grid, solar-powered energy security and charging solution designed for rapid deployment without construction, electrical work or utility connections. Widely deployed across the U.S., it supports both military and commercial applications, with thousands of chargers in operation. Each EV ARC™ charging system generates and stores clean energy independently, to power the electrification of transportation, exemplifying Beam Global’s mission to advance sustainability and energy independence. The Company recently reported that its EV ARC™ products continued to function in eight feet of storm surge throughout Hurricane Helene for the federal government in Florida.
The Build America, Buy America (BABA) Act is a provision of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) with the primary goal to bolster domestic manufacturing and ensure that federally funded infrastructure projects use materials and products made in the United States. Beam Global has been manufacturing products in the U.S. since 2010.
