Company

Overview

Founded 1997

Year of establishment

The company was established in 1997 with a focus on pioneering hydrogen fuel cell systems.

$629M Revenue

Annual revenue in 2024

The company generated $629 million in revenue in 2024, reflecting its growing presence in the hydrogen ecosystem.

69,000+ Systems Deployed

Fuel cell systems worldwide

Over 69,000 fuel cell systems have been deployed, showcasing the company's extensive reach.

250+ Fueling Stations

Global fueling infrastructure

More than 250 fueling stations have been built, supporting the hydrogen ecosystem.

Pioneered hydrogen fuel cell systems to replace batteries in forklifts and industrial vehicles.
Expanded into a full hydrogen ecosystem: producing, liquefying, storing, transporting, dispensing, and converting hydrogen to power.
Notable customers include Amazon, Walmart, BMW, and Renault, with strategic joint ventures like HYVIA in Europe.
Recorded substantial losses (~$2.1B) in 2024 while scaling up its GenEco electrolyzer platform.
Ongoing hydrogen plant projects in Georgia, Tennessee, and Louisiana backed by the U.S. DOE.
Streamlining operations and cutting costs through Project Quantum Leap restructuring.
Aims to become one of the world’s largest green hydrogen producers, targeting both vehicle and stationary power applications.

Environment + Sustainability

2030 Net Zero Target

GHG Emissions Reduction

Aiming to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across operations and value chain by 2030.

500 Ton/day Hydrogen Target

Green Hydrogen Production

A goal to produce 500 tons per day of green liquid hydrogen in North America by the end of 2025.

84% GHG Reduction

Carbon-Efficient Hydrogen

DOE-backed facilities reduce greenhouse gas emissions by ~84% compared to methane-based hydrogen production.

1000 Ton/day Global Scale

Hydrogen Expansion

Plans to scale green hydrogen production to 1,000 tons per day globally by 2028.

Green hydrogen plants to be powered by 100% renewable energy (e.g., Brookfield Renewable deal for first plant).
DOE-backed $1.66 billion loan guarantee secured in Jan 2025 to build up to six zero- or low-carbon hydrogen production/liquefaction facilities.
Expanded green hydrogen capacity: 3 operational plants producing 45 tons/day; aiming for 70 tons/day by end of 2022.
Tracked Scope 1/2 emissions, GHG inventory, water usage, and conducted materiality assessment with PwC in 2022.

Inclusion & Diversity

Aspirational goal to create a workplace that values cultural diversity in recruitment, development, and retention of employees.
Diversity, inclusion, and belonging initiatives aim to provide all employees with opportunities to learn, grow, and contribute fully to their work.
