摘要

According to Proterra Inc. vice-president of supply chain Westy Bowen, the company has completed its first bus assembled entirely at its Phase 1 manufacturing facility in Greenville, SC. Bowen says, "The Phase 1 facility at 25 Whitlee Court is manufacturing Proter-ra's EcoRide BE35 buses and FastFill charging stations. Additionally, Proterra is working aggressively with local support to break ground on its larger state-of-the-art Phase 2 plant located on Clemson University's International Cen- ter for Automotive Research campus in the spring of 2011. In honor of the first Greenville manufactured bus, an event will be hosted at 10:30 a.m. at 25 Whitlee Court where they'll be offering the opportunity to experience the bus first hand, tour the Phase I facility, and hear the latest news on Proterra's progress in Greenville."
