These plants will utilize Plug Power's advanced technology to generate green hydrogen, contributing to the decarbonization efforts across Europe. The company aims to achieve a production capacity of 850 tons per day of green hydrogen by the end of the decade.

The selected locations in Finland strategically leverage the country's clean energy sources, with each site focusing on specific applications like local use and export, green steel production, and local mobility and pipeline injection to Western Europe.

Forward-Looking Statement and Outlook for 2023

The company shares some exciting plans for 2023 in its future-looking statement. Investors might want to keep an eye on the bullish-looking stock because of the latest deals and the Plug stock price surge.

In the report, Plug Power shares a detailed roadmap outlining the leading industries and strategies the company will focus on throughout the current year. One of the main projects for Plug is the development of their innovative PEM Technology Gigafactory. The team aims to expand its manufacturing processes to build 100 large electrolyzer stacks in May alone.

The growth in the backlog of electrolyzers is being fueled by Plug's success in securing significant project mandates on a global scale. The company wants to expand in this sector and solidify its position as a strong market leader.

In terms of financial goals, Plug shares some ambitious numbers for 2023. The company is looking to end the year with $1.4 billion in revenue and 10% in gross margin. From the current perspective, these goals require 600% growth in revenue and 40% growth in gross margin, which is a long road. Nevertheless, the company sees profitability potential and will continue to provide innovative solutions for businesses.

Our primary goal is to achieve revenue of $1.4 billion, and that's in 2023, which is supported by several activities, including learning the scale of 5-megawatt electrolyzer systems in partnerships with our fabricators, scaling our stationery products to facilitate 20 megawatts in shipments

Other Considerations

Hydrogen energy has its limitations, and it is undeniable that Plug has a history of overpromising and underdelivering.

From a trading standpoint, PLUG is a stock with a lot of volatility, and I think it could outperform as the liquidity outlook improves, with the Fed possibly moving to rate cuts later next year., However, we have to weigh this against a possible recession which will likely hit the economy sometime next year.

Ultimately, I think we could rally a bit further in the next few months as both technicals and fundamentals look good in the medium term.
