Second Quarter 2021 Financial Recap Plug Power shipped 3,666 GenDrive units and had revenue associated with 16 hydrogen infrastructure systems for the second quarter 2021 compared to 2,683 GenDrive units and 4 hydrogen infrastructure systems in the second quarter 2020. Net revenue for this quarter was $124.6 million compared to $68.0 million for the second quarter of 2020. Gross billings were $126.3 million this quarter compared to $72.4 million for the second quarter of 2020.
As highlighted in our first quarter investor letter, gross margin has remained under pressure driven by multiple factors including significant costs sourcing the hydrogen molecule stemming from numerous force majeure shutdowns, substantial costs as we terminated a fuel vendor relationship and transitioned to new providers, and COVID-19 related impact to the global supply chain. These dynamics resulted in ~$31 million associated with the fuel issues and ~$4 million of COVID-19 related costs in the second quarter. Hydrogen vendor transition alone accounted for 2/3 of fuel related cost issues during the quarter.
During the second quarter of 2021, hydrogen prices remained highly elevated as North American supply faced unprecedented pressure due to force majeure events that lasted well beyond expectation. The impact was substantial for the cost of the hydrogen molecule to Plug Power during the quarter given our focus on providing seamless service to our end customer. In addition, we also incurred substantial costs associated with mobilizing our high-pressure tube trailers as we collaborated with our industrial gas partners to ensure minimal impact on customer operations despite a historic supply disruption in the hydrogen industry. Over the last several weeks, the hydrogen industry has turned on ~85 tons per day of hydrogen capacity, or ~30% increase, from the force majeure lows we experienced earlier in the year. This includes 35 tons of new capacity added in July of 2021. Furthermore, as our force majeure resilient green hydrogen generation network in North America comes online, force majeure and industry disruption events like these will be less impactful to Plug Power and the broader hydrogen industry.
Plug Power has now transitioned entirely away from one specific industrial gas supplier that had escalated prices egregiously. Although high, the one-time cost of transition for new tanks, site conversions as well as contract termination fees has set the stage for a lower cost platform going forward and stronger partner relationships. The COVID-19 related costs primarily stem from freight and material costs given the global impact of COVID-19 on the transit industry; these will continue into the second half of 2021 but should begin to abate if the global crisis subsides. As


LOGO

a result of both declining hydrogen prices and declining COVID-19 related costs, and due to our continued efforts into supply diversification, we expect improvement in our margins by the second half of the year.
Margins for the second quarter were also negatively impacted as production is scaled for new products, reliability investments made to extend stack life have continued, and service resources expand to accommodate the rapid growth of our deployments. While volume was up significantly in the second quarter, many of the sites were deployed late, hence a slight mismatch in new resources versus straight-lined service/PPA revenues. This correlation of start-up service resources to commencement of associated commercial billings, should be better balanced in Q3 assuming more linear growth and deployment timing.
As mentioned on the Q1 earnings call, activity in the electrolyzer market has picked up significantly in terms of both volume and size of projects in the company’s funnel. Growth in the electrolyzer business is estimated to be up over 400% in 2021 versus 2020 and expected to continue to grow at robust levels through 2024. As new products scale, we expect to realize significant labor and parts leverage from our reliability and resource investments. Given service platform progression, we expect break-even to slightly positive service margin run rates materializing early in 2022 and progressing towards our 2024 margin targets.
In the first half of 2021, Plug Power completed a restatement of its previously issued financial statements for fiscal years 2018 and 2019. In connection with the restatement process, we incurred additional legal and accounting costs during second quarter 2021. We expect these higher costs to abate going forward now that this activity is behind us. In addition, we had incremental legal and accounting costs associated with various joint venture (JV) activities. We expect these costs continue at some level as we execute on these new JV platforms over 2021.

The New Path to Hydrogen Mobility
Plug Power formally launched the 50-50 JV with Groupe Renault to target 30% of the fuel cell powered light commercial (LCV) market in Europe, which is expected to be 500,000 vehicles in 2030.
HYVIA expects to be first-to-market with turnkey hydrogen mobility solutions including: light commercial vehicles with fuel cells, hydrogen fueling and supply, maintenance, and management of fleets. The JV will operate across four sites in France with the intent to drive the further decarbonization of mobility in Europe positioning France as an industrial, commercial and technology leader. The official launch of the JV is further proof of Plug Power’s commitment to develop strategic partnerships to accelerate its global expansion.
Several teams from Plug Power have relocated to join the HYVIA team in France. We expect to be launching the first three fuel cell vehicle models brought to market by HYVIA in Europe by the end of this year. These vehicles will be based on the Renault Master platform and will be accompanied with the deployment of fueling stations and the supply of green hydrogen.

Plug Power Continues Building the First North American, Force-majeure Resilient Green Hydrogen Supply Network
In the second quarter of 2021, we announced the location of Plug Power’s third green hydrogen plant in Camden County, Georgia to serve customers in the southeastern United States. This plant is expected to produce 15 tons per day of liquid green hydrogen using 100% renewable energy. This supply is intended to fuel transportation applications, including material handling and fuel cell electric vehicle fleets. This plant will join Plug Power’s two previously announced green hydrogen plants:
In Western New York, at the New York Science, Technology and Advanced Manufacturing Park (STAMP), this plant will be North America’s largest green hydrogen production facility with an expected initial production of 45 metric tons per day of green liquid hydrogen.
In South Central Pennsylvania, where the green liquid hydrogen production facility will utilize 100% renewable energy from Brookfield Renewables Holtwood hydroelectric facility with an expected initial production up to 15 tons per day.
The Camden County, Georgia green hydrogen plant is fitting with Plug Power’s previously announced targets of having 500 tons per day of green hydrogen generation capacity by 2025 and 1,000 tons per day globally by 2028. All three liquid green hydrogen plants are expected to be online in summer 2022/early 2023, and along with our existing Tennessee plant, will become part of Plug’s green hydrogen network.
In August of 2021, we broke ground in Georgia with plans to have the first green hydrogen gaseous plant phase up and running before the end of 2021. This will use our 5MW electrolyzer, and the second phase 15 tons per day liquid plant is expected to be operational in the summer of 2022. This site has the potential to be expanded to over 30 tons per day.
In July of 2021, Plug Power finalized a 345 MW wind power purchase agreement (PPA) with Apex Clean Energy to commission the first and largest onshore wind-powered green hydrogen production plant in the world. This green hydrogen plant’s planned initial production of over 30 tons per day of clean liquid hydrogen will have the ability to fuel over 2,000 light commercial vehicles or over 1,000 heavy duty class 8 trucks.
