José Luis Crespo (Plug Power): “Companies that wait until 2030 to secure renewable hydrogen supply will be too late”
October 2, 2026
In a new interview with El Periódico de la Energía, Plug’s José Luis Crespo makes the case that the race to secure renewable hydrogen supply is already well underway. His message to the market is direct. The companies that wait until 2030 to lock in their renewable hydrogen supply will arrive too late to stay competitive.
He points to a market that is maturing fast, where the projects moving forward now are the ones built on firm offtake and real supply agreements rather than intentions. For Plug, it reinforces a simple view. Securing clean hydrogen capacity early is a strategic advantage, not a decision to defer.
