The U.S. Postal Service has awarded contracts to purchase battery-operated delivery vans and install charging stations at various agency facilities nationwide as part of its fleet electrification initiative.
Awards cover the procurement of 9,250 E-Transit Battery Electric Vehicles from automaker Ford and more than 14,000 pieces of EV supply equipment from three companies, USPS said Tuesday.
“We are moving forward with our plans to simultaneously improve our service, reduce our cost, grow our revenue, and improve the working environment for our employees. Electrification of our vehicle fleet is now an important component of these initiatives,” said Postmaster General Louis DeJoy.
The agency expects to spend as much as $9.6 billion in electrification efforts, with $3 billion of the estimated total investment coming from Inflation Reduction Act funds.
