Plug Power Expands Hydrogen-Powered GenDrive and GenFuel Solutions with Floor & Decor

SLINGERLANDS, N.Y., Oct. 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  (NASDAQ: PLUG), a global leader in comprehensive hydrogen solutions for the hydrogen economy, today announced the successful deployment of its GenDrive hydrogen fuel cell systems and GenFuel hydrogen infrastructure at Frederickson, WA distribution center. This partnership marks the first implementation of a zero-emission material handling fleet for the leading specialty retailer of hard-surface flooring.

Plug has equipped Floor & Decor’s Frederickson facility with a complete hydrogen ecosystem, powering 77 pieces of material handling equipment with Plug’s end-to-end hydrogen infrastructure. This includes a 10,000-gallon liquid hydrogen storage tank, vaporizers, compressors and a high-capacity dispensing system designed for high-throughput operations.

Plug’s hydrogen fuel cell technology will help Floor & Decor eliminate more than 400 metric tons of CO₂e emissions annually at the Frederickson distribution center – the equivalent of avoiding burning roughly 45,000 gallons of gasoline. In addition to emissions reduction, the system produces only water vapor as a byproduct, which Floor & Decor captures and reuses for facility operations such as floor scrubbers. Based on current dispenser data, the system generates approximately 300 liters – or about 80 gallons – of water per day for recapture.

“This partnership with Floor & Decor showcases the proven reliability and performance of our GenDrive systems in demanding retail distribution environments,” said Andy Marsh, CEO of Plug. “Our end-to-end hydrogen solutions help support Floor & Decor’s dedication to operational efficiency, exactly what our technology is designed to deliver.”

The success at the Frederickson site also opens the door to expanded hydrogen infrastructure, Plug’s hydrogen system also offers off-grid capabilities, enhancing energy resilience during power outages and periods of grid instability, while Plug's modular infrastructure is designed to scale easily as Floor & Decor's operations grow. This partnership reinforces Plug Power's leadership in the material handling market and demonstrates how retailers can use Plug's hydrogen technology to achieve both sustainability and operational performance goals.
