UNSPSC 25175001: Electric vehicle portable charger

Portable charging unit that can be carried in the vehicle, used as emergency back up to recharge vehicle battery.

UNSPSC 25175001 Electric vehicle portable charger is a Commodity code that captures state and local government procurement of charging infrastructure and related equipment for electric vehicles, though recent solicitation activity shows considerable variation in actual scope. Boulder County posted an IFB (BID31026) in August 2026 for ChargePoint public and fleet charging stations—dual-port units with cloud subscriptions, warranties, and cord management systems delivered to 2525 28th Street, Boulder, Colorado, with response due September 9, 2026. The University of Southern Mississippi issued an IFB (BID 27-08) in August 2026 for a solar-powered e-bike and scooter charging station with integrated solar panels, battery storage, and weather-resistant construction rated for Mississippi climate conditions, due September 1, 2026. A third opportunity from Pinellas County School District (26AM014) posted in August 2026 under this code requests motor vehicle batteries for school bus compounds in Largo, Tarpon, Clearwater, and St. Petersburg, Florida, with an estimated annual value of approximately $65,000 and response due August 19, 2026—but this procurement for stationary bus-depot batteries diverges from the code's nominal scope. County governments and school districts dominate the issuing-body mix, alongside a state university, reflecting diverse fleet and facility electrification priorities.

Recent activity clusters in Colorado and Florida, with one opportunity in Mississippi. The Boulder County solicitation requires delivery by end of 2026 and is specification-only for ChargePoint equipment with separate pricing for materials, cloud plans, warranties, and shipping; bidders must submit through the Bonfire portal. The University of Southern Mississippi seeks a turnkey solar-powered system with 25-year solar-panel warranties and structural warranties of 5 years, evaluated on technical compliance (30%), experience (20%), sustainability (15%), warranty and support (15%), and cost (20%). The Pinellas County School District procurement is an all-or-none IFB covering twelve battery types with weekly maintenance and stock rotation at no charge; contractors must hold general liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence and comply with Jessica Lunsford Act background screening. The code shows modest recent activity, and the Pinellas opportunity's focus on stationary backup batteries for school buses rather than vehicle charging equipment suggests inconsistent tagging across state and local systems.
