Plug Power Announces Sale of Graham, Texas Project and Staged Closing of New York Gateway Project with Stream Data Centers, Expects $80 Million in Near-Term Liquidity as Part of $275 Million-Plus Initiative

SLINGERLANDS, N.Y., July 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Plug Power Inc. (NASDAQ: PLUG) today announced two transactions with Stream US Data Centers, LLC ("Stream"), advancing the Company’s previously announced strategic infrastructure optimization initiatives, which collectively target more than $275 million in liquidity improvement through a combination of asset monetization, release of restricted cash, and reduced maintenance expenses. In addition, Stream and Plug Power are now also actively exploring other opportunities for Plug to deploy its products into the data center industry.   Plug previously announced in February 2026 that it had entered into a definitive agreement to sell its interest in the New York Gateway Project to Stream. As the parties continued to work toward satisfaction of the transaction's closing conditions, including applicable regulatory and project-related approvals, the parties agreed to restructure the transaction into a staged closing and to enter into a definitive agreement for the sale of Plug’s Graham, Texas Project.
