(NASDAQ: PLUG), a global leader in comprehensive hydrogen solutions for the hydrogen economy, today announced it has completed the first hydrogen fill of Hynetwork’s 32-kilometer hydrogen pipeline in Rotterdam, Netherlands supplying 32 tons of RFNBO-certified renewable green hydrogen and the delivery of a custom unloading infrastructure required for this first pipeline-purging and filling operations. Hynetwork is a 100 percent subsidiary of Gasunie and implements the hydrogen network in the Netherlands. The Rotterdam segment connects port and industrial demand centers and will ultimately link into the broader European Hydrogen infrastructure, which aims to create a pan-European hydrogen transport system by repurposing and expanding existing gas infrastructure. As of the first major segment of the Netherlands’ national hydrogen network, it marks the further roll out of the Dutch as well the European hydrogen network advancing industrial decarbonization, strengthening energy security, and enabling large-scale clean hydrogen transport across the region. Plug was awarded the public tender to meet the project's complex and evolving requirements. Together with Plug's Netherlands and Hynetwork’s engineering team an skid capable of unloading three MEGC trailers in parallel with a high-throughput configuration was specifically engineered. This milestone builds on Plug’s proven European hydrogen delivery capabilities, demonstrated in October 2025 with the H2CAST project in Germany, a joint initiative led by Gasunie and STORAG ETZEL. Plug successfully delivered over 44 tons of renewable hydrogen to the H2CAST salt cavern storage facility and was subsequently awarded an additional 35-ton supply contract. Together, these projects highlight Plug’s ability to reliably supply and transport hydrogen at scale across Europe. “The Hynetwork hydrogen network represents one of Europe’s most important early hydrogen infrastructure deployments, and Plug is proud to support the commissioning of the Rotterdam pipeline,” said Jose Luis Crespo, President and Chief Revenue Officer of Pl...
