ΗΛΠΑΠ (Ηλεκτροκίνητα Λεωφορεία Περιοχής Αθηνών Πειραιώς) was founded after the acquisition of the Electric Transport Company on December 14, 1970 and was under the control of the Ministry of Transport and Communications. The total length of the network is 404 km, including 19 lines in the Athens-Piraeus region. The fleet consists of 356 trolleybuses equipped with anti-pollution technology. The first trolleybuses entered service in the city of Piraeus in 1948, serving the Castella area. After five years of successful operation of the company, the first line also began to operate in Athens, serving the Pathisia-Ampelokipi route. In July 2011, the transport company was taken over by Road Transport (OSY) SA.
