UNSPSC 26111716: Mercury oxide battery

UNSPSC 26111716 Mercury oxide battery is a Commodity code that covers individual battery cells and units procured by state and local governments for operational, fleet, emergency power, and equipment-support purposes. Recent state and local solicitations under this code and closely related battery procurements show governments buying rechargeable battery cells, battery backup systems, vehicle batteries for fleet operations, and direct current batteries for critical infrastructure such as radio tower power systems. Issuing bodies include city procurement departments (Tampa, Phoenix, Orange County Public Works), counties (Hillsborough County Fire Rescue, Escambia County waste operations, Orange County), independent school districts (Northside ISD in Texas), state purchasing divisions (Nevada Department of Human Services), and regional transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit). A handful of repeat activity appears in Florida—Hillsborough County and Escambia County both posted multiple solicitations in the June–August 2026 window.

Recent opportunities cluster in the Southeast and Southwest. The City of Tampa's RFQ for 400 units of PowerSonic 12VDC rechargeable batteries (RFQ 26-P-00296, due May 12, 2026) and the County of Orange's IFB for vehicle battery and miscellaneous supplies across three California delivery locations (IFB-080-2909801-RN, bid due March 25, 2026, with a $250,000 five-year contract ceiling) represent typical fleet and departmental purchasing. The City of Phoenix's five-year contract for parts, installation, and service of direct current batteries and power plants for the Regional Wireless Cooperative (IFB-26-0107, offer deadline December 8, 2025) signals government investment in critical backup power infrastructure. The Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority's procurement of Battery 1 Cell 685AH units (RFQ 2099270, due May 22, 2026) and the State of Nevada's quote solicitation for an EcoFlow battery backup system (due May 27, 2026) show ongoing demand across transit and emergency-preparedness sectors. Activity is also visible in Florida (Tampa, Escambia County, Hillsborough County), Texas (Northside ISD, DART), California (Orange County), Nevada, Arizona (Phoenix), and Washington State (Sourcewell's cooperative procurement for law enforcement equipment, RFP 061626, due June 16, 2026).
