A class action lawsuit has been filed against Plug Power Inc. and certain senior executives, alleging securities fraud after the company suspended plans to construct six hydrogen production facilities. This decision put at risk a $1.66 billion Department of Energy loan guarantee that had been announced earlier in the year. Following the news of the suspended projects, Plug Power’s stock dropped 17.6 percent, falling from $2.49 to $2.25 per share. The lawsuit claims that Plug Power overstated the likelihood that it would receive the DOE loan funds and complete the hydrogen production facilities. Investors have until April 3, 2026, to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the case, which is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York.
