UNSPSC 26131815: Electric accumulator

Used in the storage of energy or power.

UNSPSC 26131815 Electric accumulator (Commodity) covers batteries, power storage modules, and related electrical accumulator equipment that state and local governments procure to support backup power systems, uninterruptible power supplies, emergency generators, and mission-critical facility operations. Recent opportunities show governments buying switchgear maintenance and testing services, UPS and battery management, emergency generator and fuel delivery system repairs, electrical equipment replacement projects, and related ancillary power infrastructure — work that depends heavily on properly functioning accumulators and batteries as core components of standby and backup power systems across water utilities, airports, correctional facilities, and municipal buildings.

State and local issuers under this code span water authorities, aviation authorities, municipal departments (facilities management, watershed management, utilities), county governments, and independent school districts. The Clayton County Water Authority in Georgia has posted multiple opportunities for switchgear preventative maintenance and overload testing (bid 2026-GS-14, due November 19, 2026 and also November 12, 2026 through the Bonfire portal); the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority issued three Invitations to Negotiate in October 2026 for UPS and battery management (ITN 26505, due October 9, 2026), emergency generator and fuel delivery system services (ITN 26506, due October 9, 2026), and electrical switchgear maintenance (ITN 26504, due October 9, 2026). Additional recent solicitations include the City of Atlanta Department of Aviation requesting on-call gate operator services with electrical components (IFB/DOA/2609-1270076, due October 22, 2026), Pinellas County's switchgear replacement at South Cross Bayou AWRF (IFB 260401ITBC, SBE set-aside, due August 25, 2026), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice procuring automatic transfer switches and generators at multiple correctional units. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Florida, and Texas, with additional solicitations in Ohio (Northside Independent School District in San Antonio), Oregon (Eugene Water & Electric Board), and Nevada (City of Gallup), reflecting nationwide demand for backup power infrastructure maintenance and replacement across water, aviation, corrections, and municipal facilities.
