Atmen is proud to announce its latest achievement as the winner of the coveted H2-Age Award at this year’s National Hydrogen Economic Forum. This recognition underscores Atmen’s pivotal role in advancing the hydrogen industry through innovative solutions.

Sponsored by the National Hydrogen Economic Forum, the BMW Group, Hamburg Invest, and the Renewable Energy Hamburg Cluster (EEHH), the H2-Age Award celebrates trailblazing start-ups that propel the hydrogen sector forward. The award spotlights outstanding innovations across the entire hydrogen value chain, supporting young companies poised to make significant impacts.

Atmen was honoured at the 3rd National Hydrogen Economic Forum in Hamburg on May 7, 2024, where the team not only received a €5,000 prize but also a trophy and the title of "Best Hydrogen Start-up 2024". The event provided a platform for Atmen to showcase its products to a distinguished audience, including industry leaders and innovators.

The decision was made by a distinguished panel of judges, including Dr. Stefan Kaufmann, Member of the German Bundestag and former Federal Government Commissioner for Hydrogen Innovation; Prof. Dr. Christopher Hebling, Director of International Affairs at the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE; and Jan Rispens, Managing Director of Erneuerbare Energien Hamburg Clusteragentur GmbH (EEHH).

In his laudatory speech, Jan Rispens particularly emphasized the platform's high degree of digitalization and the relevance of the green certification topic for the sector. Atmen provides the ideal interface between legal and regulatory requirements for green hydrogen certification, including for the requirements of the European Commission in accordance with the RED II Directive, and the operational data flows during production, supply and use of green hydrogen. It turns a complex, tedious topic into a set of highly usable applications, derisking hydrogen projects development and operations.

"We are at a turning point in the way the industry verifies its sustainability efforts. Hydrogen and e-fuels are a core part of the industrial decarbonization, but also the first energy-intensive products where the complexity of proving and certifying decarbonization are so acute." commented Flore de Durfort, co-founder and CEO of Atmen.

Atmen continues to push the boundaries of technology and innovation in the hydrogen industry, committed to contributing to a sustainable and energy-efficient future.
