WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Postal Service on Tuesday plans to announce a major increase in electric vehicle purchases after it won new funding from lawmakers, a source told Reuters.

Congress in August gave USPS $3 billion as part of a $430 billion climate bill to buy electric vehicles and charging infrastructure. In July, USPS said it would buy at least 25,000 electric delivery vehicles – more than twice its prior estimate – to replace its aging fleet.
