Plug Power Launches 'Project Quantum Leap' to Tighten Costs and Refocus Growth

The plan targets $150 million to $200 million in annual savings by prioritizing electrolyzers and large-scale deals.

Overview

  • Plug Power says it is pivoting from growth at all costs to a leaner operating model under Project Quantum Leap.
  • Electrolyzer revenue reached $119.5 million through Sept. 30, up 61% year over year and roughly one-quarter of total sales.
  • Recent commercial wins include a 55 MW equipment and service agreement with U.K. developer Carlton Power and a liquid hydrogen supply contract with NASA.
  • The company has secured outside financing to extend its runway, even as it continues to post operating losses and manage cash burn.
  • Shares are down more than 90% over five years and some analyst lists exclude the stock, reflecting ongoing dilution concerns and divided sentiment.
