Proterra (PRTA) Stock Gains On Miami-Dade Fleet Electrification Project

Electric vehicle technology firm Proterra’s share price is gaining premarket after it announced a fleet electrification project with the Miami-Dade county.

“Miami-Dade County has long been a leader in advancing forward-looking clean technology solutions. We are delighted to build on our partnership together and drive the county’s switch to zero-emission, electric transportation with our EV technology,” said Jack Allen, Proterra CEO.

The company did not provide any financial details relating to the deal.

Proterra’s share price is trading at $16.50 premarket, up 1.91% from the previous day’s close. However, it is still some way off its all-time high of $31.06, seen in January this year.
