"USPS Introduces Electric Fleet and Charging Infrastructure in Atlanta"
The US Postal Service has unveiled its first EV charging stations in Atlanta as part of a $40 billion plan to upgrade its service and assemble one of the country's largest EV fleets, with over 66,000 delivery vehicles in service. The USPS is converting post office sites into new sorting and delivery centers to deploy EVs along local carrier routes, with plans to add at least 45,000 battery-electric Next Generation Delivery Vehicles by 2028. This move marks an exciting first step towards electrifying the USPS fleet, which currently consists of over 217,000 delivery vehicles.
