In 2025, the Pyongyang trolleybus system has seen a significant change, with three routes being converted to electric bus operation, in the lead up to the Party Foundation Day parade. Further conversions are likely on the way, with the trolleybus factory working on the conversion of older Chollima 091 trolleybuses into electric buses, as depicted in the KCTV news report.

Outside of Pyongyang, trolleybus systems have seen a few positive developments: the commuting trolleybus in Sinhung was revived in 2024 after being mothballed since 2017; Sariwon also received several new trolleybuses in 2024; Hamhung and Chongjin have also both produced new trolleybuses.
