Plug Power continues to make strong strides within its fuel cell system business across its target
markets. In 2020, Plug Power drove further adoption in core material handling, on-road and
stationary power markets.
Within its core market of material handling, the Company added a fourth pedestal customer. This customer is an automotive manufacturer with over 50 plants worldwide.
Plug Power’s GenKey hydrogen and fuel cell solutions offer an attractive value to auto-manufacturing customers, where material handling fleets spend the day loading and unloading very heavy containers of auto parts that are used in the vehicle assembly process.
The steady performance and fast refueling of fuel cell-powered vehicles results in productivity improvements up to 15%. Plug Power will commission four sites for this customer in 2021.
In addition, Walmart, a foundational customer for Plug Power, adopted GenKey hydrogen and fuel cells solutions for use in its eCommerce network in 2020, bringing its GenDrive deployed base to more than 9,500 total.
During 2020, Plug Power solidified its global leadership position in green hydrogen solutions through acquisitions and strategic partnerships. They closed the acquisition of Giner ELX and United Hydrogen to become a vertically integrated green hydrogen generation company.
We believe it is important to note that the market for green hydrogen remains substantial on a global basis.
