Plug Power Inc has awarded free one-week fuel-cell demonstrations to three yet-to-be-disclosed materials handling firms, one each in Illinois, Missouri and Louisiana.
The firms were among more than 20 registering for the possibility of an in-plant technology demonstration. Plug Power conducted the contest during the International Foodservice Distributors Association conference on 24-26 October in Fort Worth, Texas.
"We are working with the three accounts to get the demos scheduled," says Reid Hislop, vice president of marketing and investor relations.
Publicly traded Plug Power is based in Latham.

TIEM delivers fresh lunches
Columbus, IND, United States
Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing Inc (TIEM) is preparing lunches for Trinity Lutheran High School students through its café program.
Partnering with caterer Aramark, the program assists the Seymour, Indiana-based high school, which does not have an on-site cafeteria.
"When we heard of Trinity's need for lunch services, it seemed liked a natural fit to lend our facility resources, which normally support TIEM's more than 800 associates," says TIEM VP of corporate services, Tim Barker.
Developed by Aramark's chefs, menu items are prepared in TIEM's 11,000 sqft. (1,022 sqm) cafeteria, and include soups, salads and sandwiches for Trinity's 140 students.
