Lebanon’s First National Electric Bus Public Transport Service between Jbeil and Beirut: An Initiative Implemented by The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) With Funding from The Global Environment Facility (GEF).
 
The service introduces four fully electric buses, supported by solar-powered charging infrastructure at Jbeil Bus Station and operating under the Railway and Public Transport Authority through its partnership with ACTC. Expected to serve around 150,000 commuters annually, the initiative aims to provide a cleaner, more affordable, and more reliable mobility alternative while helping reduce traffic congestion, dependence on private vehicles, and approximately 900 tCO₂e emissions per year. 

The buses are wheelchair accessible and designed to support more inclusive mobility for persons with disabilities, women, youth, older persons, students, and workers who rely on shared transport every day.
