Proterra announced last week that it plans to go public through a merger with a special-purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, called ArcLight Clean Transition. The deal is expected to close in the first half of 2021, subject to approval from ArcLight’s shareholders, according to a statement. The company’s shares are expected to trade on the Nasdaq.

Representatives from the Biden transition team and Proterra did not respond to a request for comment. No matter when Granholm ultimately decides to divest, she has agreed to recuse herself from any matters that she knows involve Proterra for the first year after she is confirmed.
