The head of the Tehran City Council, referring to the importance of public transportation and the necessity of using electric buses, announced that the import of these types of buses is still ongoing. He emphasized that currently, 500 electric buses have been imported into the country, and according to plans, this number is set to increase to two thousand units.

Proposal of the Minister of Industry, Mine and Trade for Increasing Imports

In this regard, the Minister of Industry, Mine and Trade has proposed that instead of importing one thousand electric buses, two thousand units should be imported. This decision has been made to expedite the modernization of the public transportation fleet and reduce air pollution in Tehran. The head of the Tehran City Council also stressed the need to provide the necessary infrastructure for charging these buses, stating: "If we are looking for electric buses, we must also think about charging them."

Challenges and Opportunities Ahead

The import of electric buses can help reduce air pollution and improve the quality of life for people. However, there are challenges such as securing the energy needed to charge these buses and creating the necessary infrastructure for them. It is hoped that with the collaboration of various institutions, these challenges will be resolved quickly. The head of the Tehran City Council announced that plans for the continuation of electric bus imports have been made in such a way that we can quickly achieve our goals.

Ultimately, increasing the number of electric buses can be seen as a positive step towards reducing traffic and air pollution in Tehran. Given the existing pollution, this action can have positive impacts on public health and the environment.
