Plug Power Inc. is facing a class action lawsuit alleging securities fraud after the company reportedly overstated the likelihood of accessing $1.66 billion in loan funds from the U.S. Department of Energy. The lawsuit claims Plug Power misled investors about its ability to construct hydrogen production facilities required to receive the funding. On November 13, 2025, news emerged that Plug Power had suspended activities on six planned hydrogen production and liquefaction facilities, putting the DOE loan at risk. This development led to a significant drop in Plug Power’s stock price, falling 17.6% in a single day. The case is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York, and investors have until April 3, 2026, to seek a lead role in the litigation.
