Blink Charging has been selected as an official supplier in NASPO ValuePoint’s new EV charging station portfolio. Spearheaded by the state of Maryland and funded through NASPO’s emerging markets initiative, Blink said this portfolio aims to provide public entities nationwide with electric vehicle charging solutions to meet the rising demand for EV infrastructure.

NASPO ValuePoint, the cooperative purchasing division of the National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO), facilitates cooperative public procurement solicitations nationwide.

According to Blink, this new portfolio offers a range of suppliers, manufacturers, and product options for Level 2 and DC fast-charge EV charging stations, along with value-added services such as installation, maintenance, repair, training, and software support. The contracts are structured to allow for the addition of new technologies and devices as the market evolves, ensuring public entities stay at the forefront of this rapidly advancing field, Blink said.

Through this contract, Blink said its EV charging equipment and services are now available for use by state governments, institutions of higher education, political subdivisions, the District of Columbia, U.S. territories, and other eligible entities, subject to approval and adherence to legal and regulatory compliance. The contract remains active through May 31, 2027, and may be renewed through May 31, 2029.
