"We are delighted to have Sam join the growing Hyzon team and help drive the business towards scale production and profitability. Hyzon will benefit from his significant experience in investor relations and treasury functions, combined with his investment banking background," said Craig Knight, CEO.  "In addition, we would like to thank Mark for serving as Hyzon's CFO.  He was instrumental in guiding us through the business combination with Decarbonization Plus Acquisition Corporation and thereby setting the stage for Hyzon to be a public company.  His deep understanding of energy, and the future role of hydrogen,  has also been an invaluable resource."
