Plug Power and Allied Biofuels expand their partnership in Uzbekistan

The agreement supports ABF’s development of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), electro-sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF) and green diesel, with a final investment decision (FID) expected in the 4Q26.

Building on the previously announced 3 GW collaboration with Allied Green Ammonia (AGA) in Australia, this new supply agreement with Allied Biofuels FE LLC (ABF) brings the total contracted electrolyser capacity between Plug and its Allied partners to 5 GW across two landmark projects. Plug’s technology will power ABF’s flagship SAF and eSAF facility in Uzbekistan, a strategically located site designed to serve global sustainable fuel markets.

The agreement was signed in Australia during Plug CEO Andy Marsh’s visit to the region, where he met with project developers and energy partners to advance additional hydrogen and liquid-fuel opportunities. The signing represents one of the largest electrolyser supply agreements announced in 2025, underscoring Plug’s growing role in enabling large scale renewable fuel production across the Central Asia region.

“This agreement is proof that Plug delivers on what others are still planning,” said Andy Marsh, CEO of Plug Power. “We’re turning hydrogen commitments into real, operating projects at multi-gigawatt scale. Signing this supply agreement in Australia highlights our deep engagement in the global hydrogen economy and our ability to provide proven electrolyser technology for SAF and eSAF production and decarbonisation.”

“At Allied Biofuels, our mission is to deliver reliable, low-carbon fuel solutions to global markets,” added Alfred Benedict, Chairman of Allied Biofuels. “Partnering with Plug’s world-class electrolyser platform ensures we can achieve the scale, reliability, and performance our customers expect. Finalising this supply agreement marks a major milestone as we progress toward FID.”

Plug’s growing global presence, including the Asia-Pacific and Central Asia regions, reinforces its position as a leading provider of electrolysers for renewable fuel and hydrogen-based energy transition projects. In addition to the above commitment, Plug is advancing hydrogen and fuel-cell deployments in South Korea, India, and Japan, helping nations integrate clean hydrogen into power generation, fuel synthesis, and industrial applications.
