Plug Power to Offer ProGen Fuel Cell Engine to StreetScooter

Zacks Equity Research

Plug Power Inc. PLUG has entered into an agreement with electric vehicle producer StreetScooter to provide its ProGen hydrogen fuel cell engines to the latter. Notably, the partnership will enable StreetScooter to offer 100 trucks powered by hydrogen fuel cell to Deutsche Post DHL, commencing from 2020.

StreetScooter will integrate Plug Power's proprietary ProGen engines into its electric delivery vehicles. Comprising MEA and metal plate stack technology, the engines will enable StreetScooter to enhance a vehicle’s drive time, apart from boosting operational efficiency with sustainable and clean technology. Notably, the engines will provide StreetScooter vehicles an increased range of up to 500 kilometres.

Fuel Cell Market Outlook

The demand for fuel cell technology is increasing on the back of reliability and cheaper-than-conventional power sources. It has become a viable option for vehicles owing to inherent zero emissions. We believe that the demand for Plug Power’s GenKey solutions will rise significantly, considering growth in the fuel cell market.
