Under a new, multi-year supply agreement, Proterra battery systems will power the Vicinity Lightning 28-foot electric transit bus and Vicinity’s strip chassis platform to support several commercial vehicle configurations such as shuttle buses, utility trucks, and box trucks.
The company has committed to a minimum investment of at least $76 million, with additional investments planned over the next several years, and expects to create more than 200 new jobs over the next several years at the 327,000 square foot battery system production plant.
Lightning eMotors has signed a two-year agreement to purchase 175 megawatt-hours (MWh) of CATL battery products.
Financing covers new and pre-owned buses and coaches, infrastructure development (including hardware, software, and support services offered by NFI Infrastructure Solutions), and vehicle batteries.
With available configurations of 490 kWh, 588 kWh, and 686 kWh, together with the largest selection of available charging options, GILLIG can configure the bus to meet any agency’s requirements.
The six new S700 streetcars join Charlotte’s current light rail fleet of 42 S70 light rail vehicles.
The cells will be delivered to Proterra factories for the manufacture of the company’s commercial electric vehicle battery systems.
The new battery production line will manufacture Proterra’s industry-leading battery packs featuring new, next generation cells and will create dozens of new jobs in Los Angeles County.
The new, narrower H Series battery packs were designed to package into standard truck frame rails and increase packaging flexibility for Proterra-Powered customers.
Charge times, cost and fleet size are important factors to take into account when planning how best to integrate EVs into a bus fleet.
