The \u201cPowerful Partnership\u201d award was presented to Plug Power as a result of the company\u2019s years of work with several local groups, including the Rochester Institute for Technology\u2019s Golisano Institute for Sustainability, the NextCorps Incubator program (NEXUS), EEP Quality Group (Efficient, Effective, Productive), Excel Partners, Alfred State, and Kodak.<\/p>\n<p>The years of consistent work done with these groups has led to important breakthroughs for Plug Power. One such example is the development of<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ir.plugpower.com\/Press-Releases\/Press-Release-Details\/2018\/Plug-Power-Acquires-American-Fuel-Cell-AFC-Research-and-Development-Capabilities-Expand-in-On-Road-Applications-Including-Delivery-Vehicle-Fleets\/default.aspx\"> American Fuel Cell and subsequent purchase by Plug Power<\/a> in 2018. The work done by these entities includes testing and validation of the nascent fuel cell membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) developed by AFC.<\/p>\n<p>Local and state support, as well as the ability to leverage such excellent human capital in the Rochester area, has directly impacted Plug Power\u2019s ability to produce world class high performance, low cost MEAs made in the U.S. The Company is on pace to be the largest MEA producer in the country by year\u2019s end.<\/p>\n<p>Site Manager, Daniel O\u2019Connell was on hand to accept the award during a luncheon at the Joseph A. Floreano Rochester Riverside Convention Center. Plug Power is appreciative of the honor and looks forward to many more years of successful work with Rochester organizations.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4962\" src=\"https:\/\/www.plugpower.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_0266-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1085\" height=\"814\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[1791,1790,1579,210,1796,1792,1797,1795,557,1794,1789,179,167,180,1793,1788,1787,1425,480,672],"class_list":["post-4959","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blog"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"\n<title>Plug Power Recipient of 2019 Technology and Manufacturing Award -
