Renewable energy company Aemetis Inc (NASDAQ: AMTX) shares are on the rise Tuesday after the company said its subsidiary, Aemetis Properties Riverbank Inc, has acquired approximately 20% of electric vehicle company Nevo Motors.
Nevo Motors was founded in 2009 and is in stealth mode during its product development phase. The company is designing high capacity electric vehicles for heavy cargo and long-range by using onboard range extender generators powered by renewable natural gas.
The Strategic Electric Vehicle Production Facilities agreement will see Nevo utilise the current and future Aemetis manufacturing facilities and fueling stations, along with renewable natural gas and renewable electricity produced by Aemetis.
