About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

The Home Depot installs and operates Plug Power hydrogen fuel cell systems at its own distribution centers to power material handling equipment like forklifts, replacing lead-acid batteries. Multiple facilities including Dallas (opened 2021) and Baltimore feature these zero-emission systems as part of supply chain expansion. Evidence: "The newly opened facility is an 812,000-square-foot building that extends the aisles of the stores by offering fulfillment for online orders, providing a broader range of products directly to customers. It features a zero-emission hydrogen fuel cell charging station" — https://fuelcellsworks.com/news/new-home-depot-distribution-center-in-baltimore-to-feature-a-zero-emission-hydrogen-fuel-cell-charging-station
