Plug Power Utilizes Federal Tax Credit for Clean Hydrogen Production in Georgia
Key Ideas
  • Plug Power plans to leverage the Section 45V federal tax credit for clean hydrogen at its new facility in Georgia, aiming to reduce fuel costs.
  • The company expects this tax credit to drive its overall fuel margin to breakeven by the end of the year and achieve positive fuel margins in 2025.
  • The Georgia facility is the largest electrolytic liquid hydrogen production plant and PEM electrolyzer in the U.S., positioning Plug Power as a key player in clean energy production.
Plug Power, a leading company in clean energy solutions, announced its intention to take advantage of the Inflation Reduction Act's Section 45V federal tax credit for clean hydrogen production at its recently established electrolytic hydrogen facility in Woodbine, Georgia. By fully utilizing the Section 45V production credit of up to $3.00/kg for clean hydrogen manufactured in the U.S., Plug Power anticipates a significant decrease in its fuel expenses. The company highlighted that this benefit is crucial in its strategy to achieve a breakeven run rate for fuel margins by the year's end and sets the stage for sustained positive fuel margins in the future, particularly in 2025. Furthermore, Plug Power's Georgia facility, recognized as the largest electrolytic liquid hydrogen production plant and PEM electrolyzer in the United States, solidifies its position as a prominent player in the renewable energy space. This move signifies Plug Power's commitment to leveraging financial incentives to drive clean energy production and establish a more sustainable fuel industry.
