Written by on January 1, 2021

A new fuel cell manufacturing company is setting up its newest gigafactory right here in Monroe County.

Plug Power Inc’s expansion move will bring somewhere around 375 jobs to the area, according to U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer.

The companies main headquarters are in Latham, near Albany, and they specialize in creating fuel cell products to replace lead-acid batteries in handling and industrial vehicles.

I am ecstatic to say that Plug Power will be plugging into Rochester as the home for its new hydrogen fuel cell ‘gigafactory’ that will rev up Rochester with over 375 new good-paying, clean energy jobs,” Schumer, D-NY, said in a written statement.
