Sustainable Jersey Purchasing Resource Center: Your Gateway to Green Technologies


Unlock your purchasing potential with our new Sustainable Jersey Purchasing Resource Center, which was designed specifically for school districts and municipalities to access sustainable equipment and services. Explore a rich array of purchasing resources, including:

  • A directory of cooperative purchasing options from state, county, and collaborative organizations.
  • A quote library showcasing eligible equipment and services customized to meet your needs.

Background

In recent years, the urgent call for sustainable transportation solutions has echoed across the nation, prompting school districts and municipalities to explore alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs) and charging equipment. However, many have faced significant challenges in navigating the fragmented landscape of available resources. With multiple co-ops and databases scattered across the internet, finding the right vehicles and chargers has become a difficult task, often resulting in missed opportunities for greener solutions.

Recognizing this gap, Sustainable Jersey created the Purchasing Resource Center to assist school districts and municipalities in accessing sustainable equipment and services. By collaborating with manufacturers, dealerships, and cooperative purchasing organizations, the initiative provides information on available green technologies. It is important to note that the Purchasing Resource Center is not a comprehensive database of these vehicle and charging infrastructure offerings.

Through working meetings, webinars, and outreach efforts, the Purchasing Resource Center fosters a community of stakeholders dedicated to advancing green mobility solutions. By addressing the barriers to accessing alternative fuel vehicles, the initiative hopes to inspire a shift toward more sustainable transportation systems, ultimately benefiting the environment and the communities they serve.
