Plug Power has quickly become a leader in alternative energy technology and I am thrilled they are further expanding their footprint here in New York Department of Energy to secure federal support to help bring this development to full fruition.” I will continue to advocate with the U.S. After securing its new over 375 job gigafactory in Rochester last month, I applaud Plug Power, a proud Upstate NY-based business with deep roots and hundreds of NYS workers, for doubling down and selecting STAMP as the home of this new production facility. “This facility will create over 60 new good-paying green-energy jobs, boost the Western New York economy, and serve as a jumping-off point to create the nation’s first U.S.-wide network of green hydrogen production facilities to produce carbon-free fuel cell power. Today we usher in a winning combination of firsts: Plug Power is creating its first ever green hydrogen production facility and we have secured the first tenant at the WNY STAMP site.

Plug Power’s future rightfully revolves around building the green hydrogen economy The project includes a 450 MW electrical substation that will service the entire STAMP site. This $290 million 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. ![]()
