<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">News Release


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Ballard Strengthens Organization to Drive Business Growth


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">For Immediate Release &#150; February&nbsp;4, 2015


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Vancouver, Canada &#150; Ballard Power Systems (NASDAQ: BLDP; TSX: BLD) today announced changes to
strengthen the Company&#146;s organization and better align it with a customer-centric growth strategy.
The organization is now comprised of two platforms &#150; Power Products and Technology Solutions.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">&#147;We have implemented important initiatives so that we are better able to deliver positive and
impactful customer experiences,&#148; said Randy MacEwen, Ballard President & CEO. &#147;Ballard is uniquely
positioned to provide high value to customers in our target markets. We have a strong brand, backed
by over 30&nbsp;years of PEM fuel cell technology leadership, along with world-class expertise and an
extensive global customer base. Our goal is simple &#150; to make each touch point with customers an
easy and rewarding experience.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Power Products
<BR>
The mandate of the Power Products group is to meet the power needs of customers through delivery of
high value, clean energy products that reduce customer costs and risks. Ballard has recently
invested in additional sales and account management resources with deep, relevant experience in
target geographic markets, including the following new team members:


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Director, Key Accounts &#150; a Kansas-based account executive with telecom industry experience will
manage key telecom accounts globally;
<BR>
Director of Sales, Americas &#150; an Arizona-based sales director with telecom industry experience will
oversee sales in the Americas;
<BR>
Sales Account Manager &#150; a New York-based account manager will be responsible for the Plug Power
account, Ballard&#146;s primary customer serving the North American material handling market;
<BR>
Director of Sales, EMEA &#150; a Germany-based sales professional with telecom industry experience will
oversee market growth in Europe, the Middle East and Africa; and
<BR>
China Country Manager &#150; a country manager for China, with more than 25-years&#146; experience in that
market, including serving in a bus fleet procurement & operations management role with one of
China&#146;s largest transit operators.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">The addition of these sales professionals strengthens Ballard&#146;s capacity to address customer needs
in Telecom Backup Power, Material Handling, Bus and other applications in the key geographies of
North America, Europe, Africa and China.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Steve Karaffa, Ballard&#146;s Chief Commercial Officer commented, &#147;We are focusing our team and
go-to-market strategy on effectively delivering what customers seek &#150; high value and resilient
power products, simply delivered.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Technology Solutions
<BR>
The mandate of the Technology Solutions group is to help customers solve difficult technical and
business challenges in their proton exchange membrane (PEM)&nbsp;fuel cell programs. Ballard will
deliver this through customized, bundled technology solutions, including world-class, specialized
engineering services, access to the Company&#146;s deep IP portfolio and know-how, as well as the supply
of technology components.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">The Technology Solutions group will support customers in the automotive, aerospace, military and
other markets, seeking to accelerate and de-risk their fuel cell development and commercialization
programs.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Dr.&nbsp;Kevin Colbow, Ballard&#146;s Vice President &#150; Technology Solutions said, &#147;Renewed interest in PEM
fuel cells for use in a range of applications has been led by the automotive industry. Ballard
stands alone in our ability to help these customers, through compelling bundled technology
solutions that promote stickiness and longer-term opportunities for component supply.&#148;
