Proterra opens new California manufacturing facility

Proterra Catalyst E2 composite-bodied bus

Joined by California Governor Jerry Brown, Proterra (Burlingame, CA, US), the manufacturer of heavy-duty composite-bodied electric buses, officially commemorated opening its new Los Angeles manufacturing facility on July 26. With transit agencies across the country committing to

zero-emission battery electric bus fleets, and Proterra leading this mass-market shift, the company says 2017 will continue to be a critical year for ramping production to meet growing national demand. Proterra is in a strong position to support the state's ambitious climate goals, help communities improve local air pollution, and create local high-tech

manufacturing jobs.

"In order to achieve California's climate goals, we need more electric cars, trucks and buses on the road. Manufacturing these electric buses in California creates good jobs and cleans up the air," said Brown. Between the Los Angeles Mobility 2035 Plan and Measure M, the successful ballot measure to fund transportation infrastructure developments and improvements, the greater Los Angeles Metropolitan region represents a massive opportunity to revitalize clean public transportation. Proterra selected City of Industry in metro Los Angeles as an optimal vehicle production location to serve West Cost transit agencies, adding to its existing battery manufacturing facility in Silicon Valley and its East Coast vehicle production facility in Greenville, South Carolina. The new Los Angeles County facility will benefit local economically-distressed communities throughout the San Gabriel Valley, providing long-term jobs in southern California's emerging center of high-tech manufacturing. Proterra expects to have over 60 employees working in this facility by the end of 2017 and close to 100 employees by the end of 2018, building upon its already diverse workforce. Partially funded by a grant from the California Energy Commission, the 100,000 square-foot facility has the capacity to manufacture 400 buses annually.

Proterra's facility is also in close proximity to its first customer, Foothill Transit, which serves 22 cities from downtown L.A. to the east, and is currently operating 17 of Proterra's electric buses, with 30 more Catalyst E2 buses on the way. Foothill will be the first transit agency to receive the new Catalyst E2 buses that roll off the assembly line this summer.

To date, Proterra buses across the United States have completed over 3.5 million miles of revenue service, displacing more than 900,000 gallons of diesel, and eliminating over 13.7 million pounds of carbon emissions. "As car culture wanes and more communities embrace 21st century, multi-modal transit, California has a unique opportunity to lead the country in this market transition," said Proterra CEO Ryan Popple.

With more than 400 vehicles sold to 40 different municipal, university, and commercial transit agencies in 20 states, Proterra is committed to providing state of the art, high-performance, lightweight vehicles to meet today's growing market demand. The company's configurable Catalyst platform is capable of serving the full daily mileage needs of

nearly every U.S. transit route on a single charge. Visit proterra.com for more information on its composite bodied buses.
