Many early adopters cannot invest in fuel cells due to the high unit cost. Government is in an
ideal position to provide monetary incentives that will encourage adoption of fuel cell technology and advance
the cause of clean, reliable, and secure energy. In this area, Plug Power is collaborating with federal and state
organizations on several major programs, including tax incentives, buy-down initiatives, demonstration projects
and renewable portfolio standards.
Additionally, as Plug Power's fuel cell products achieve economic viability, the government can expedite the
commercialization process by serving as an early market for commercial fuel cell systems.
