The GSA is the federal procurement body that pre-negotiates ‘best price’ supplier contracts on behalf of US government agencies.

Gehrlicher’s contract with GSA means it will be able to supply its solar solutions at pre-agreed rates without having to bid for individual projects.

Gehrlicher Solar America’s chief operating officer Jerry Shinn said: “We are excited to bring our efficient expertise to US federal agencies via this efficient contracting mechanism and look forward to working closely with our government counterparts who are striving to reduce energy costs and meet renewable energy mandates.”
