Based on a multilateral agreement signed early this week, Iran Post Company will switch from motorcycles using fossil fuel to electric bikes to renovate its fleet and curb its carbon footprint. 
A deal has been signed in this regard by IPC, Tehran Municipality's Transportation and Traffic Organization, a subsidiary of Vice Presidential Office for Science and Technology, and local motorcycle manufacturer Sahand Company, YJC reported.
Based on the agreement, 3,000 electric motorcycles are to be delivered to IPC in two phases. Initially, 50 bikes will be delivered by early May on a trial basis. If the expected quality is verified, a date will be set up for the delivery of other bikes. 
Tehran Municipality is committed to offer cheap loans worth 150 million rials ($967) with a 4% interest rate to each applicant for replacing a carbureted-engine postal delivery bike.
