ForeFront Power, a frontrunner in providing commercial- and industrial-scale solar solutions, has recently secured a significant Master Agreement for Fleet Electrification Services. This collaboration with the League of Oregon Cities (LOC) paves the way for cities across the region to embrace clean energy solutions and electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure in a more streamlined manner.
Efficient Pathway to Electrification
The newly forged agreement allows cities to quickly procure fleet electrification options without wading through the often cumbersome process of issuing Requests for Proposals (RFPs). By leveraging NPPGov's cooperative purchasing platform, LOC members gain access to a comprehensive range of EV services provided by ForeFront Power, simplifying their journey towards sustainability.

From design and construction to software management and maintenance, they ensure that every city receives a comprehensive service package. Moreover, their adaptable financing options facilitate the adoption of EV charging infrastructure with minimal initial investment, effectively easing the transition to electric fleets.
Comprehensive Infrastructure Support
The scope of ForeFront Power’s offerings ranges from Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) like Level 2 chargers and DC fast chargers, to advanced technologies such as Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) systems and integrated battery storage solutions. This variety empowers cities to address a wide spectrum of electrification needs efficiently and economically.
Voices of Leadership
Rachel McLaughlin, the Chief Commercial Officer at ForeFront Power, expressed her enthusiasm about this new partnership. She stated, "We are honored to participate in this agreement that empowers LOC members to electrify their fleets through our customizable, all-inclusive solutions. This partnership supports Oregon’s ambition to emerge as a leader in sustainable transportation."
Facilitating Access to Vital Services
Kevin Toon, Communications & Business Development Director at the League of Oregon Cities, highlighted the importance of this collaboration by saying that it alleviates the challenges faced by cities in finding top-tier electrification solutions. He noted, "By simplifying access to this contract, we ensure our member cities can readily acquire the necessary tools to advance their electrification journey effectively and at a reduced cost." The agreement thus serves as a vital resource for local agencies looking to join the clean energy movement.
