Hypion GmbH is a specialist in green hydrogen economy development, founded in 2019 as a joint venture between IPP Projects GmbH, Region Heide Development Agency, and EDF Deutschland GmbH.

Additional hubs are planned in Lübeck, Heide, Itzehoe, and the Schleswig-Flensburg region. Hypion also pursues maritime hydrogen applications through the H2HubMar project. The company provides services including feasibility studies, planning, permitting, technical-economic due diligence, and operational management.
