By securing approval under TIPS Contract 25020101 for Renewable Energy and Solar Solutions, Sunbolt can now sell directly to schools, municipalities, and parks departments through a pre-vetted channel. This removes a major hurdle in public sector renewable energy adoption: long, resource-heavy bidding processes that often delay or discourage projects.
The cooperative model also levels the playing field for smaller districts and towns, giving them access to competitive pricing typically reserved for larger buyers. For Sunbolt, it opens the door to thousands of potential customers that would otherwise be difficult to reach through conventional procurement.
Sunbolt’s outdoor workstations are built to meet both sustainability and connectivity needs in spaces where traditional electrical infrastructure isn’t practical. The stations, compliant with National Electrical Code standards, allow users to charge laptops, tablets, and phones without drawing power from the grid.
Demand for this type of infrastructure is growing as schools experiment with outdoor learning and cities invest in digital-ready public spaces. Transit hubs, campus quads, and community parks are increasingly seen as extensions of classrooms and workplaces, creating new expectations for access to reliable power.
For public agencies, the appeal is twofold: visible sustainability commitments and operational savings. Each unit generates its own power, reducing energy costs and carbon emissions while avoiding the installation expenses of grid connections.
