<P STYLE="font: bold 24pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">Ballard announces 1.5 MW fuel cell engine order
for Sierra Northern Railway</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">VANCOUVER, BC, June 5, 2025 /CNW/ -&nbsp;Ballard Power
Systems (NASDAQ: BLDP) (TSX: BLDP) today announced the signing of a new supply agreement with California-based rail operator Sierra Northern
Railway (https://www.sierranorthern.com) for the supply of 1.5 MW of fuel cell engines, expected to be delivered in 2025.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">As part of Sierra Northern Railway's efforts to decarbonize
its operations across California, 12 Ballard FCmove<SUP>&reg;</SUP>-XD engines will be supplied to convert three diesel switching locomotives
to hydrogen-fueled, zero-emission locomotives. The FCmove<SUP>&reg;</SUP>-XD modules are specifically designed for heavy-duty applications,
offering high reliability, durability, efficiency and power density, and provide the benefits of zero emissions without the need for costly
overhead catenary systems.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">&quot;We are thrilled to collaborate with Sierra Northern
Railway on this groundbreaking project&quot; said Randy MacEwen, President and CEO of Ballard Power Systems. &quot;This partnership underscores
the versatility of our industry leading fuel cell technology and the critical role fuel cells can play in advancing sustainable rail solutions.
We are excited to continue Ballard's momentum in decarbonizing the North American freight rail sector.&quot;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">Kennan H. Beard III, President of Sierra Northern
Railway commented, &quot;Integrating Ballard's fuel cell modules into our switching locomotives aligns with our commitment to innovation
and environmental stewardship. This initiative not only enhances our operational efficiency but is also a pivotal step in California's
efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector.&quot;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">Trains powered by Ballard fuel cells offer safe and
reliable zero-emission operations, including long range, fast refueling and flexible operation across a wide variety of routes and environmental
conditions, acting as a 1:1 replacement of diesel engines on non-electrified rail lines.&nbsp;</P>
