AGBESS adds ZeroBase Energy to resilience portfolio

AGBESS has partnered with ZeroBase Energy to broaden its public-sector power offerings with hybrid, mobile and deployable systems for critical facilities, remote sites and emergency operations. The deal also gives Sourcewell members a streamlined path to procure the technology through AGBESS's cooperative contract.

Why it matters: - Public agencies, utilities and other critical operators face rising pressure to keep power on during outages, disasters and grid constraints. - The AGBESS-ZeroBase Energy partnership adds options designed to cut generator runtime, fuel use and maintenance needs. - The agreement also opens a procurement channel for more than 50,000 Sourcewell cooperative purchasing members.

What happened: - AGBESS announced a strategic partnership with ZeroBase Energy on Sept. 3, 2026. - AGBESS will add ZeroBase Energy's hybrid, mobile and deployable power systems to its public-sector resilience portfolio. - The partnership targets government and critical infrastructure customers across the U.S.

The details: - The systems combine battery energy storage with generators, renewable energy and available grid power. - AGBESS will offer the technology for communications and remote sites, emergency and disaster response, defense and expeditionary operations, municipalities and public safety, transportation, utilities and other critical locations. - The lineup includes fixed hybrid systems for critical facilities and communications sites. - The lineup also includes portable, trailer-mounted and transportable units for places where grid service is limited, unreliable or unavailable. - ZeroBase Energy has deployed more than 1,000 hybrid power systems worldwide across defense, government, humanitarian and commercial uses. - The company builds systems to coordinate multiple power sources for efficiency in demanding environments. - The technology is available through AGBESS's Sourcewell contract (#062625-ASTG). - That contract gives participating government agencies, educational institutions, municipalities, utilities and other public entities a streamlined procurement path.

Between the lines: - AGBESS is deepening its technology-agnostic approach by adding another partner focused on resilient energy. - The move positions AGBESS to cover more use cases, from fixed facilities to mobile and mission-critical deployments. - ZeroBase Energy gains access to AGBESS's public-sector sales and marketing reach. - The partnership also reflects continued demand for distributed power systems that can operate with less dependence on diesel generators and fragile grid connections.

What's next: - AGBESS will market the ZeroBase Energy systems to public-sector buyers through its existing procurement framework. - The companies are likely to target agencies and organizations that need backup power for remote, mobile or mission-critical operations. - AGBESS said the addition strengthens its ability to support customers across fixed, mobile, remote and mission-critical power environments.

The bottom line: - The partnership broadens AGBESS's resilience toolkit and gives public-sector buyers another route to deploy hybrid power systems where reliable electricity matters most. - More information
