Previously Sr. VP, Proterra Energy, Chris Bailey will now lead Proterra’s growing business as a provider of its electric vehicle technology to commercial manufacturers and charging infrastructure solutions for heavy-duty electric fleets.

This follows the completion of the company’s previously announced business combination with ArcLight Clean Transition Corp., a special purpose acquisition company, that resulted in Proterra becoming a publicly-listed company.
