But our rugged systems held up to the elements flawlessly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Storm Hits, then what?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many Plug Power customers still had to serve their customers, shipping food and other goods across the country \u2013 stopping operations was not an option. They were relying on their forklift fleet and its GenDrive fuel cell power to continue working as usual despite the conditions outside.<\/p>\n<p>Aware and ready for our customer\u2019s 24\/7 business, Plug Power\u2019s intelligent GenCare 24\/7 Network Operations Center provides real-time monitoring of every system in our deployed GenDrive and GenFuel fleets, allowing for proactive problem resolution. Plug Power GenCare technicians monitor fleet availability, unit uptime, fuel cell, hydrogen skid and dispenser pressures, and infrastructure in use \u2013 in real-time. This allows us to identify a problem before it affects customers, resulting in customer sites running at, or above, our guaranteed 97% uptime.<\/p>\n<p>Our GenCare team even monitors the weather as new storms develop, allowing our team to develop and strategize alternative hydrogen supplies in case of an outage. In anticipation of Jonas, we were preparing for sites to be underwater because of the storm surge, roads to be shut down because of snow or ice or below-zero temperatures freezing components of outdoor systems. Luckily, none of this occurred for our customers.<\/p>\n<p>Our goal is to meet and exceed our guaranteed 97% uptime no matter the circumstances and our GenCare team continues to improve in order to do just that. We\u2019re pleased that our hydrogen fuel cells enabled our customers to work through winter storm Jonas and we\u2019ll always be prepared for the next storm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>POWER<\/strong><em>Ahead<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plug Power\u2019s GenFuel infrastructures continue to show reliability \u2013 specifically when the devastating winter storm \u201cJonas\u201d hit the East Coast..
