Hyperion Global Energy

Hyperion Global Energy is an Ottawa, Ontario cleantech company developing an industrial carbon recycling system. Its patented Tandem Carbon Recycling System is housed in a modular, containerized drop-in unit designed to capture and convert stack emissions directly at their source, combining capture and conversion in a single all-in-one system rather than separating the two steps. The company states the process is net carbon negative and is intended to handle the high emission volumes produced by power generation and other heavy industrial processes such as cement production and manufacturing.

The stated output of the process is mineral commodities derived from waste CO2, which the company positions both as an emissions mitigation measure and as a source of materials and revenue for the industrial operator. Hyperion claims up to 99% of CO2 can be mitigated at source, an impact it describes as equivalent to taking 30,000 cars per year off the road for each installed system. The company's stated mission is to become a leader in global carbon recycling.

Business model

Hyperion Global Energy positions its containerized capture-and-conversion unit as a drop-in system for heavy industrial emitters, with the converted CO2 yielding mineral commodities that create materials and revenue streams alongside emissions reduction.

The company frames its value proposition around converting waste CO2 emissions into sought-after mineral commodities, creating valuable materials and revenue streams for industrial operators.

Traction

The company reports approximately six employees and lists a World Changing Ideas Award in 2018 and a Climate Changemakers Canadian Winner designation in 2020.
