<P STYLE="font: bold 24pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">Ballard Power Systems deepens strategic partnership
with Quantron AG and receives order for 140 fuel cell engines</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">VANCOUVER and AUGSBURG, Germany, Sept. 19, 2022 /CNW/
- Ballard Power Systems (NASDAQ: BLDP) (TSX: BLDP) today announced a minority equity investment in Quantron AG, a global electric vehicle
integrator and an emerging specialty OEM, to accelerate fuel cell truck adoption. As part of Quantron's financing round of up to 50 million
euros, Ballard's investment proceeds will be used by Quantron to develop their truck fuel cell vehicle platforms, under the terms of a
Joint Development Agreement. Ballard will be the exclusive fuel cell supplier to Quantron for these platforms.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">As part of the strategic partnership, Quantron committed
to purchase 140 FCmove<SUP>TM</SUP> modules totaling approximately 17MW, with an option to purchase an additional 50 units. The fuel cell
modules are expected to be delivered in 2023 and 2024.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">The zero-emission fuel cell electric vehicle platforms
developed by Quantron will integrate Ballard fuel cell products for various truck applications in Europe and the US.&nbsp;Quantron's initial
market focus is Germany, where their new 44T fuel cell truck is to be unveiled at IAA Transportation 2022.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">&quot;We are seeing growing global demand and policy
support for zero emission transport as companies strive to reach decarbonization targets. This collaboration accelerates our entry into
the European truck market and aims to have Quantron's initial hydrogen-powered, zero emission trucks on the road in the next 18 months,&quot;
said Randy MacEwen, CEO, Ballard Power Systems.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">&quot;Quantron is thrilled to advance our strategic
partnership with Ballard. We see compelling mobility use cases where fuel cell engines are the most suitable zero emission solution, given
the power and range requirements of the application,&quot; commented Andreas Haller, founder, and Chairman of Quantron AG.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">Michael Perschke, CEO of Quantron AG added, &quot;We
want to offer our customers the best solution possible, and our continued collaboration with Ballard allows us to advance our environmentally
friendly offerings to meet our customers' needs, including range, payload, and refueling time, with an increasingly competitive total
cost of ownership.&quot;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">Pursuant to its strategic investment, Ballard will
have the right to appoint a representative to Quantron's Board of Directors.</P>
