Vice President of Public Affairs for Plug Power Erin Lane is creating history by helping the US reach its net-zero emissions goals by 2050. Plug Power is a leader of clean hydrogen and zero-emission fuel cell solutions that are both cost-effective and reliable, and Erin leads the company’s work with the federal government to build a robust hydrogen ecosystem and economy. Thanks to this work, the US government is adopting policies to ensure that hydrogen energy is a reality today. Erin sat down with Madam Policy hosts Dee Martin and Rebecca Brown to chat about the impact that geopolitical events—like the war in Ukraine—and domestic policies—like the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law—have on the US energy supply. The trio also discussed the importance of coalition building and clear messaging about the sometimes complicated topic of hydrogen energy. Erin is a leader, mentor, and friend who is an expert political strategist, coalition builder, and genuinely nice person.
