Under the agreement, Plug Power will provide engineering design, essential equipment, fabrication, and project management services. Construction of the facility and related equipment is expected to begin in the coming months. The partnership combines Edgewood’s expertise in renewable energy development with Plug’s experience in hydrogen and large-scale energy infrastructure.
Steve Harrington, CEO of Edgewood Renewables, said: “Edgewood is focused on developing scalable renewable fuel platforms that turn waste streams into valuable, low-carbon energy. Partnering with Plug brings deep process expertise and proven execution capabilities that ensure these facilities will set a new benchmark for performance and reliability. Plug’s knowledge and know-how in the hydrogen space is a natural extension into the renewable fuels market.”
This initiative represents Plug Power’s first large-scale involvement in renewable fuel production using biomass feedstocks and RNG. It expands the company’s activities beyond hydrogen, positioning it within complementary clean-fuel markets. Plug’s contribution draws on its experience in designing and constructing large hydrogen production facilities in Louisiana and Georgia, as well as its long history in engineering complex energy projects rooted in oil and gas infrastructure.
Jose Luis Crespo, President and Chief Revenue Officer at Plug Power, stated: “The renewable fuels work we’ve been doing with Edgewood at their Las Vegas area facility builds directly on Plug’s foundation of large-scale project execution. Our engineering, plant design, and commissioning teams have delivered major hydrogen facilities from concept to operation, capabilities that translate seamlessly to advanced biofuel projects.”
Alan Sharkey, Executive Vice President of Project Execution at Plug Power, added: “This partnership underscores the versatility of Plug’s engineering and project execution teams. Whether hydrogen, sustainable aviation fuel, renewable diesel, or biomethanol, we know how to integrate complex systems at scale, and that’s exactly what’s needed to move renewable fuels forward.”
Through this collaboration, Plug Power and Edgewood Renewables aim to integrate renewable feedstocks and advanced process technologies to develop sustainable, domestically produced fuel solutions. The project is expected to strengthen the renewable energy sector by promoting cleaner fuel production and supporting the ongoing transition toward low-carbon energy systems.
