Plug Power to build H2 production facility in New York

The plant will produce 45 metric t of green liquid hydrogen daily, servicing the Northeast region. The plant will use 120 MW of Plug’s PEM electrolyzers to make the hydrogen using clean NY hydropower. The New York plant joins the company's existing Tennessee plant in a network that aims to supply 500 t/d of green hydrogen by 2025, and 1,000 t/d globally by 2028.

This $290 MM investment in green hydrogen production leads the way to decarbonizing freight-transportation and logistics and supports the Empire State’s path to achieving carbon-neutrality by 2050. The project includes a 450 MW electrical substation that will service the entire STAMP site.

STAMP is a 1,250-acre mega site located at the center of upstate New York’s largest population, research, and workforce training hubs. STAMP has completed all site-level design and engineering, and all-site level environmental and zoning approvals to house projects including semiconductor manufacturing, renewables manufacturing, biopharma manufacturing, and other high-capacity industries. The site is located in NYPA’s low-cost hydropower zone and will be serviced by high-capacity, 100% renewable, reliable and local power sources.
