Hydrogen liquefaction and distribution
Hydrogen liquefaction is the process of cooling gaseous hydrogen to extremely low temperatures so that it becomes a liquid, reducing volume and enabling bulk storage and long-distance transport.[10] Plug Power’s St. Gabriel, Louisiana facility, operated through the Hidrogenii joint venture with Olin, is a hydrogen liquefaction plant that can process up to 15 tonnes of hydrogen per day as part of Plug’s broader hydrogen generation and logistics network.[2][10] Liquefied hydrogen can then be transported by road tankers or other means to fueling stations, industrial users, or power generation sites where on-site storage and regasification infrastructure exist.[10]

Fuel cell power systems for material handling
Fuel cell power systems for material handling use hydrogen to generate electricity on-board industrial vehicles such as forklifts, replacing lead-acid batteries and enabling fast refueling and high uptime.[1] Plug Power’s GenDrive fuel cell systems power more than 74,000 units operating at over 280 hydrogen-powered material handling sites worldwide, serving customers including major retailers and logistics companies.[1] These systems are central to Plug’s legacy business and demonstrate a commercial application where hydrogen fuel cells have already achieved scale and operational track records.[1][9]
