Plug Power (NASDAQ: PLUG) and Johnson Matthey announced today that they are partnering to develop a hydrogen business.

Johnson Matthey will supply components, providing catalysts, membranes, and catalyst coated membranes.

"This strategic partnership between Plug and JM will support Plug in delivering its targeted revenue of US$5 billion and US$20 billion by 2026 and 2030 respectively," wrote Johnson Matthey in a news release. "To help achieve these targets, Plug and JM will co-invest in what is expected to be the largest (5GW scaling to 10GW over time) CCM manufacturing facility in the world. The facility will be built in the United States and likely begin production in 2025. Plug and JM will also continue to leverage government incentives from the Inflation Reduction Act in the US and REPowerEU in Europe to push for exponential growth across the hydrogen industry."
