Global Hydrogen Review,
The plant, which opened in January 2024, is the largest electrolytic liquid hydrogen production facility in the US and uses Plug’s proprietary GenEco proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyser technolog. Designed for a nameplate capacity of 15 tpd, the site continues to demonstrate the scalability, reliability, and cost-competitiveness of Plug’s vertically integrated approach.
“Plug’s Georgia plant is doing exactly what it was built to do – delivering real hydrogen at real scale using Plug technology,” said Andy Marsh, CEO of Plug Power. “This is not a pilot or a promise. It is commercial hydrogen production, with proven technology running 24/7 and making an impact today.”
The Georgia facility is a cornerstone of Plug’s growing hydrogen generation network, which includes operational plants in Georgia, Tennessee, and Louisiana. Together, these sites represent a combined production capacity of 40 tpd, making Plug the largest producer of liquid hydrogen in the US.
“The performance in Georgia reinforces strong market demand for Plug’s GenEco electrolysers,” said Jose Luis Crespo, Chief Revenue Officer at Plug Power. “Producing and delivering hydrogen with our own technology strengthens customer value, improves margins, and supports long-term commercial growth.”
Hydrogen produced at the Georgia plant supplies Plug’s key customers in logistics and distribution – including Walmart, Amazon, and Home Depot – helping companies decarbonise operations while ensuring a stable, domestically produced fuel supply.
