Plug Power Inc. (US72919P2020) closed at USD 2.09 on the Nasdaq on September 22, 2026, after trading between USD 2.06 and USD 2.14. The latest company update is a 1 MW GenEco PEM electrolyzer shipment to HWR Hydrogen in New Zealand, according to Business Insider on September 22, 2026.
One megawatt reaches New Zealand
The electrolyzer is intended for HWR Hydrogen's refueling station in Invercargill, where it will produce hydrogen for a dual-fuel heavy-truck fleet. The shipment extends Plug Power's GenEco footprint across New Zealand and Australia, while the same September 22, 2026 report noted that Plug is also supplying a 50 MW GenEco PEM system for Orica's Hunter Valley Hydrogen Hub in Australia.
The Australian project is designed to produce approximately 4,700 metric tons of renewable hydrogen annually, according to Business Insider on September 22, 2026. The comparison matters: the New Zealand delivery is a 1 MW deployment, while the Australian system is 50 times larger in stated electrolyzer capacity.
Revenue beats expectations but losses remain
Plug Power generated USD 178.3 million of revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, up 2.5 percent from the year-earlier quarter. According to MarketBeat on September 22, 2026, revenue exceeded the USD 169.11 million consensus estimate by USD 9.19 million, or 5.4 percent.
The quarter also showed the central financial constraint. Earnings per share were negative USD 0.07 in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 against a negative USD 0.08 consensus estimate, while the reported net margin was negative 220.59 percent. Revenue growth therefore improved the top line without removing the earnings burden.
