ForeFront Power, a leading provider of commercial- and industrial-scale (C&I) solar energy, community solar, battery storage, and fleet electrification services, has made a significant step towards a greener future. The company has been awarded a Master Agreement for Fleet Electrification Charging, Supplies & Services by the League of Oregon Cities (LOC) through NPPGov, a leading national cooperative procurement organization. This contract provides a streamlined and transparent process for Oregon’s cities to implement their electrification and sustainability initiatives, ensuring access to comprehensive electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions with ease.
This newly awarded contract eliminates the need for Oregon’s cities to go through the complex and time-consuming process of issuing their own Request for Proposals (RFPs) for fleet electrification solutions. Through NPPGov’s cooperative purchasing platform, LOC members can readily learn about and procure ForeFront Power’s diverse range of EV fleet services. ForeFront Power acts as a comprehensive project management partner, offering turnkey design, construction, software management, operations, and maintenance services, ensuring each city receives a customized solution tailored to its specific needs.
The company’s flexible financing models make EV charging infrastructure adoption possible for cities with minimal upfront costs. From Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE), such as Level 2 and DC fast chargers, to advanced options, including Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) bidirectional charging and battery storage solutions, ForeFront Power can help cities meet a wide range of electrification needs efficiently and cost-effectively.
“It’s an honor to be selected for this Master Agreement that enables us to help LOC members electrify their fleets with our customizable, turnkey solutions, and position Oregon as a leader in the clean fleet category,” said Rachel McLaughlin, Chief Commercial Officer at ForeFront Power. “By leveraging this contract, Oregon cities can accelerate their fleet electrification initiatives with confidence, knowing that ForeFront Power will provide the technology, support, and flexibility they need to meet their goals.”
“By offering access to this contract through NPPGov, our member cities and public agencies nationwide can easily procure top-tier fleet electrification solutions without the burden of conducting their own solicitations,” said Kevin Toon, Communications & Business Development Director at League of Oregon Cities. “ForeFront Power’s comprehensive approach, offering everything from EV charging infrastructure to software, operations, and maintenance, means they can provide our member cities with the tools they need to progress their electrification journeys efficiently and cost-effectively.”
ForeFront Power will be present at the upcoming League of Oregon Cities Conference, scheduled for October 15-17 in Bend, Oregon. This provides an opportunity for Oregon city leaders to engage directly with the ForeFront Power team, explore their fleet electrification options, and learn more about the benefits of the new League of Oregon Cities master agreement.
