Beam Global sells a versatile off-grid solar-powered EV charging solution. HEVO provides wireless charging hardware and a supporting software platform. Now the two companies have partnered to launch an integrated autonomous wireless charging system.
The system is aimed at the autonomous vehicle (AV) sector, and is adaptable to a wide range of commercial EV fleet applications in which vehicles need to be charged without human intervention.
The combination integrates HEVO’s Rezonant UL-certified and SAE-qualified wireless charging hardware and Journey software platform with Beam Global’s rapidly-deployable EV ARC charging product. The companies are offering a turnkey charging package that enables fully automated charging without trenching, utility interconnection or manual intervention.
Most AVs currently rely on clumsy human beings to plug them in, making even the most capable AVs reliant on human intervention. The Beam Global/HEVO solution is designed to make AVs fully autonomous and powered entirely by renewable energy.
Beam Global and HEVO are rolling out the system with “select international customers” and will jointly demonstrate autonomous EVs equipped with the new system at sites in the US and the UAE “in the coming months.”
“Beam’s patented wireless charging coupled with HEVO’s technology is a natural and essential combination for AVs,” said Desmond Wheatley, CEO of Beam Global. “We are delivering a market-ready solution that removes the barriers of grid dependency, civil work and manual charging. We are already seeing strong interest from customers around the world, and our upcoming demonstrations will highlight how this integrated platform accelerates commercial adoption.”
“Autonomous fleets are not autonomous if charging is not automated, resilient and immediately deployable,” said Jeremy McCool, founder and CEO of HEVO. “Our patented Rezonant wireless charging hardware and Journey software platform, integrated with Beam Global’s EV ARC systems, deliver exactly that.”
