Plug Power +64% After Securing $1.66B Loan Guarantee From Biden Administration
Plug Power, Inc. (NASDAQ:PLUG) shares are trading higher after the company received a conditional commitment for an up to $1.66 billion loan guarantee from the Department of Energy.
Plug Power, Inc.（纳斯达克股票代码：PLUG）获得能源部高达16.6亿美元的贷款担保的有条件承诺后，该公司股价走高。
The Department of Energy's Loan Programs Office gave the contract to Plug Power to finance the development, construction, and ownership of up to six green hydrogen production facilities.
能源部贷款计划办公室向Plug Power签订了合同，为多达六个绿色氢气生产设施的开发、建设和所有权提供资金。
Plug's projects under the loan will adhere to the Biden Administration's Justice 40 Initiative.
Plug的贷款项目将遵守拜登政府的司法40倡议。
Plug runs the largest proton exchange membrane PEM electrolyzer system in the U.S. at its Woodbine, GA, plant, the company said in a press release. Its green hydrogen network can produce around 25 tons of liquid hydrogen daily.
该公司在一份新闻稿中表示，Plug在其位于乔治亚州伍德拜恩的工厂运行美国最大的质子交换膜 PEM 电解槽系统。其绿色氢气网络每天可以生产约25吨液氢。
"Green hydrogen is an essential driver of industrial decarbonization in the United States," said Plug Power CEO Andy Marsh. "We appreciate the partnership with the DOE Loan Programs Office and are pleased to have worked through an intensive due diligence process."
Plug Power首席执行官安迪·马什说：“绿色氢是美国工业脱碳的重要驱动力。”“我们感谢与美国能源部贷款计划办公室的合作，并很高兴能够完成密集的尽职调查流程。”
The production facilities, to be chosen for financing following procedures outlined in forthcoming documentation with the Department of Energy, will be established nationwide. They will provide major corporations, including Plug Power's current clients, with domestically produced, low-carbon green hydrogen.
将在全国范围内建立生产设施，这些生产设施将按照能源部即将发布的文件中概述的程序进行筹资。他们将为包括Plug Power现有客户在内的各大公司提供国产的低碳绿色氢气。
The hydrogen generated will be used in applications in the material handling, transportation, and industrial sectors.
产生的氢气将用于物料搬运、运输和工业领域的应用。
"Earlier this year, Plug successfully demonstrated our innovation and technical ability by launching the first commercial-scale green hydrogen plant in the country in Woodbine, Georgia. This loan guarantee will help us build on that success with additional green hydrogen plants," Marsh added.
“今年早些时候，Plug在佐治亚州伍德拜恩启动了该国第一座商业规模的绿色氢气工厂，成功展示了我们的创新和技术能力。这项贷款担保将帮助我们在这一成功的基础上再接再厉，建造更多的绿色氢能工厂，” Marsh补充说。
While this conditional commitment represents a significant milestone and demonstrates the Department of Energy's intent to finance the project, specific technical, legal, environmental, and financial conditions, including negotiation of definitive financing documents, must be satisfied before funding of the loan guarantee.
尽管这项有条件的承诺是一个重要的里程碑，表明了能源部为该项目提供资金的意图，但在为贷款担保提供资金之前，必须满足特定的技术、法律、环境和财务条件，包括最终融资文件的谈判。
Price Action: PLUG shares are trading higher by 64.4% to $4.75 premarket at last check Tuesday.
