What's Going On With Plug Power Shares Today?

Plug Power Inc. (PLUG) shares are trading lower today. Today, the European Commission has approved the joint control of HyVia by Renault SA RNLSY and Plug Power France under the European Merger Regulation.

The transaction primarily involves the production and supply of fuel cell light commercial vehicles and hydrogen refueling stations.

The stations support Plug’s customers like Amazon and its HYVIA venture with Renault, marking significant progress in hydrogen fuel solution.
