About H2APEX
Hydrogen as the energy source of the future.
H2APEX develops, builds and operates green hydrogen electrolysis plants for industry, mobility and infrastructure. Turnkey solutions – from initial planning to ongoing production.
Since our strategic focus on hydrogen in 2012, we have built up technology, locations and expertise that have a tangible impact today: our own production, customers supplied and ongoing projects.
OUR INNOVATIVE SUBSIDIARIES
AKROS Energy – Storing hydrogen like no one else can.
The research cooperation with LIKAT Rostock has resulted in a technology that will change the market: chemical hydrogen storage based on salt – unpressurized, non-toxic, highly efficient. Not a laboratory project. A pilot plant is already running in Rostock. TRL 6 – and on the way to TRL 7.
HydroExceed – Hydrogen. Stored. Available.
Founded in 2022 as a spin-off in Rostock-Laage, HydroExceed develops and produces highly efficient type IV compressed gas storage tanks at 500 bar – carbon fiber reinforced, standard-compliant, “Made in Germany”. From individual tanks to scalable 20-foot container systems. Series production in Laage – growing with the market.
History
2000
Founded as APEX Energy Teterow GmbH in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, focus on project development in renewable energies, initially with a focus on photovoltaics
2012
Strategic realignment: complete focus on hydrogen with a focus on production and storage
2019
Relocation to Laage and alignment of the site as headquarters and strategic infrastructure hub for green hydrogen
2020
Commissioning of a 2 MW electrolysis plant with storage and CHP, which at the time was the largest grid-connected electrolysis plant in Europe
2021
Two tenders won in the area of EPC services and start of construction of electrolysis plants with a total output of 15 MW for customers from the energy industry (REALLABOR H2- WYHLEN project and HyBit Bremen project).
2022
Ongoing H2 production, commissioning of the first hydrogen filling station for heavy goods vehicles in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern
2023
Renaming and IPO on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange as H2APEX Group SCA after merger of APEX Group with exceet Group SCA
2024
Receipt of a funding decision in the amount of € 167 million from the European Union’s IPCEI program (Important Project of Common European Interest) for a 100 MW electrolysis plant, funded by the federal government (€ 117 million) and the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (€ 50.2 million).
2025
Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners joins IPCEI-funded 100 MW project WAL – Hydrogen from Lubmin, start of approval planning and implementation of the project as a beacon of the hydrogen economy in north-east Germany.
Today
H2APEX Group with subsidiaries HydroExceed and AKROS Energy, 6 patents, TRL 6
Core business
CO₂-neutral energy supply - from a single source H2APEX produces green hydrogen, develops decentralized standard systems for regional supply and offers mobile and stationary storage solutions. Three pillars, one goal: reliable, economical hydrogen supply.
Green hydrogen
In-house production since 2022 – electrolysers, CHP units and fuel cells at the Laage site. We supply filling stations and industrial customers directly. Green-doing instead of green-talking.
Project development
Standardized 5 MW PEM electrolysis plants that are built where hydrogen is needed.
H2 storage solutions
H2APEX uses various approaches for the mobile storage of hydrogen and is conducting intensive research into a chemical storage solution.
Prospects
Hydrogen ramp-up in Germany by 2035
