Heard in the Corner Office : 5:30 PM ; Latham , NY
Andy Marsh : I want everyone in my Office ... NOW !
AM : Okay People, I need ideas . We're not going to last the week unless we start putting out some good news ... What have we got ?
Sanjay : Boss, Can we add anything to the LA Plant openning news ... like an immediate expansion ?
AM : An Expansion ? With what ? Everyone knows we are running on fumes .. we can't even keep our food service open , let alone spend money on a boondoggle.
Investor Relations : How about a New MOU. $5 Billion . With AGA in Outer Mongolia ?
AM : How many deals do we have running with AGA already ? Will anyone believe we have another one ?
AM : Paul, how do earnings look ? Can we do an interview and drop a hint that the earnings will be great ?
Paul M : Andy, We can't do that, because this Q is going to be the worst ever. Hopefully some miracle will happen otherwise the music won't be pretty.
Investor Relations : Paul, Andy, Have you guys thought about resigning ? That would easily get us above $1.00 ... maybe higher ?
AM : We already considered that, but NO ONE wants the jobs. No one wants to try to drive a train wreck.
AM : Alright. $1,000 to anyone who can come up with something to stop this bleeding .....

Hidrogenii, a Plug and Olin Joint Venture, Commissions 15 Ton Per Day Hydrogen Liquefaction Plant in Louisiana
April 17, 2025
Hydrogen Capture Enhances Sustainability and Profitability of Olin’s St. Gabriel Facility
Plug US Hydrogen Capacity now at 40TPD
ST. GABRIEL, La., April 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hidrogenii, the joint venture between Plug Power Inc. (NASDAQ: PLUG) and Olin Corporation (NYSE: OLN), today announced the commissioning of its 15 metric-ton-per-day (TPD) hydrogen liquefaction plant in St. Gabriel, Louisiana. Among the largest electrolytic hydrogen liquefaction facilities in North America, the site marks a major milestone in strengthening the regional hydrogen supply chain and accelerating the U.S. transition to low-carbon energy.
The newly commissioned facility will liquify hydrogen produced by Olin for trailer shipments across the U.S., serving Plug’s material handling customers and utilizing Plug’s novel spot pricing market. The plant is designed to liquefy up to 15 TPD of hydrogen at maximum capacity, increasing Plug’s total production capacity to 40 TPD.
“This Louisiana plant, a milestone in expanding our U.S. hydrogen network, bolsters our financial position by leveraging a dependable, cost-effective hydrogen source, reducing our reliance on third-party suppliers,” noted Plug CEO Andy Marsh.
Ken Lane, President and CEO of Olin, added, “This joint venture is consistent with Olin’s value-first approach to build on our existing leading positions through high-value adjacencies or bolt-ons that align with our capital allocation framework.”
Established in 2022, Hidrogenii was formed by Plug and Olin to build and operate this state-of-the-art liquid hydrogen facility in St. Gabriel, Louisiana. The plant plays a key role in Plug’s broader strategy to scale a national green hydrogen network, joining existing Plug production sites in Woodbine, Georgia (15 TPD), and Charleston, Tennessee (10 TPD).

April H2IQ Hour Webinar: Geologic Hydrogen
April 24, 2025 12:00PM to 01:00PM EDT
Join our H2IQ Hour webinar on April 24, 2025, at 12 p.m. ET for updates on the energy potential of geologic hydrogen from Geoffrey Ellis at the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and Douglas Wicks with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).
...
The presence of natural hydrogen in Earth’s subsurface is well-documented in a variety of geologic environments, but the global potential of this resource is not fully understood. Recent discoveries around the world, including in the U.S., highlight the need to widen the search and develop the right tools to access this potentially vast energy resource.
...
The H2IQ Hour will include two live presentations (45 minutes) followed by a 15-minute Q&A.

Will this administration help US hydrogen companies stay ahead of the competition or will it slow down US hydrogen innovation?
Bay Area company using hydrogen to power its data center
By John Ramos April 16, 2025
...
"What you see over here is a rack which has the capacity of 1.5 million GPUs in this area, right here," Bachar said.
That's equivalent to one and a half million high speed processors. He said the single 2-foot-wide rack was the most concentrated unit of computing power in the world.
...
But it also creates something else important to data centers, water. As a byproduct of the chemical reaction, the plant generates about 200 gallons of pure, distilled water a day which is fed back into the data center to keep the processors cool.
"It's a factory not only for energy and AI," he said. "It's actually a water factory, as well."
...
"We're the first ones in the world who are actually running a hydrogen-based data center 24/7 for stationary power," Bachar said. "That's the first in the world over there, so that's a major breakthrough."

$PLUG Plug Power received a $1.66 billion loan guarantee from the U.S. Department of Energy's Loan Programs Office to help finance the construction of up to six hydrogen production facilities. This funding will support the development of projects to produce and liquify clean hydrogen, aiming to supply Plug Power's national customer base.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Purpose:
The loan guarantee will help Plug Power build facilities that will produce and liquify clean hydrogen.
Project Details:
The projects are expected to use American-made electrolyzers to produce hydrogen, according to the Department of Energy.
Impact:
This initiative is expected to generate jobs and reduce greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional hydrogen production methods.
National Scope:
The clean hydrogen produced will be supplied to Plug Power's existing customer base, which includes companies in the material handling, transportation, and industrial sectors.
Timeline:
The loan guarantee was finalized in January 2025, with the projects expected to be operational by the end of 2028.
Location:
Plug Power's Graham, Texas plant, powered by a nearby wind farm, will be the first to benefit from the loan.
