“The Solar Arc has the capacity to fully charge our fleet’s Chevy Bolts, but more importantly we can quickly deploy them where it makes the most sense for our fleet’s needs,” said Jaime Barnett, BGE’s manager of emergent technologies and innovation. “We are also building permanent infrastructure for charging solutions which gives us the flexibility to grow our EV fleet in a way that allows us to best serve our customers.”
The Beam Solar Arc is a level 2 charger, and its panels track the sun as it moves across the sky increasing the unit’s generation capacity by 25 percent.
BGE is also developing a 500-unit public charging network across its service area to increase charging options for EV drivers.
