Power with two destinations
Power from the solar or wind farm becomes computing capacity or hydrogen. What the data center does not need right now is stored instead of curtailed.

·OUR ROLE
One point of contact. Built with certified partners
We do not build electrolyzers. Certified partners handle design, construction and financing under their own contracts with you. We select them, steer the project and protect the hub around the clock. Dashed boxes show the partners' services.
·THE BASICS
Electricity becomes storable energy
A hydrogen hub (H2 hub) is a site where an electrolyzer uses electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen is compressed, stored and supplied to industry, transport or power plants. It is called green when the electricity comes from solar or wind.
·PROCESS
From project to protection. In five phases
Each phase ends with a clear result before the next one starts.
- 01
Feasibility
Check power supply, offtakers and site, result in writing
- 02
Site & permits
Clarify land, grid connection, authorities and permits
- 03
Design & financing
Partners design the plant and financing, our security concept from day one
- 04
Construction & commissioning
Partners build, acceptance together with us
- 05
Operation & protection
Round-the-clock SOC monitoring, NIS 2 reporting channels
Start: your projectResult: a protected hydrogen hub
·ONE SITE, TWO PATHS
Why data centers and hydrogen belong together
Both need a lot of power, a strong grid connection and round-the-clock protection. That is why project developers increasingly plan them as one shared energy site.
Heat and reserve
Servers and electrolyzers give off heat that can feed a district heating network, for example. Stored hydrogen can supply emergency power through fuel cells.
The same protection duties
Large data centers and hydrogen plants can count as critical infrastructure. Both need monitoring, reporting channels and secured control systems.
·MARKET
Where Europe stands on green hydrogen today
Electrolysis capacity is measured in megawatts (MW) of electricity the plant can take in.
As of October 2026. Europe: market overview “Green hydrogen in Europe”, based on operator information. Germany: EWI / German Environment Agency, hydrogen production by electrolysis, June 2026.
·PROTECTION
Hydrogen plants as critical infrastructure
The EU NIS 2 Directive lists the production, storage and transmission of hydrogen in the energy sector (Directive (EU) 2022/2555, Annex I). Operators covered by NIS 2 must protect their plants against cyber attacks and report incidents.
Round-the-clock SOC
A SOC (Security Operations Center) continuously analyzes alerts from IT and the plant and responds to attacks. Service and response times as per contract.
Plant control (OT)
OT (operational technology) is the technology that controls electrolyzers, compressors and valves. We help separate it cleanly from the office network and monitor it.
Secure remote maintenance
Manufacturers and service providers often access the plant remotely. We set up remote access so that every session is approved, logged and time-limited.
NIS 2 and reporting
We check whether NIS 2 applies, set up risk management and the reporting chain and train senior management.
Questions about hydrogen? Answers
Does GermanAI Defense build hydrogen plants itself?
No. We take on the assignment, steer delivery and handle security. Planning, construction and financing lie with certified partners, who sign their own contracts with the client.
What is green hydrogen?
Hydrogen produced by an electrolyzer using electricity from renewable sources such as solar or wind. Its production emits no CO₂, unlike hydrogen made from natural gas.
Does a hydrogen plant fall under NIS 2?
The directive explicitly names the production, storage and transmission of hydrogen in the energy sector. Whether a specific operator is covered also depends on size and national law. An applicability check clarifies this in writing.
What does hydrogen have to do with data centers?
Both need a lot of power and a strong grid connection. On a shared site, power goes into computing capacity or hydrogen, waste heat can be used and hydrogen serves as a reserve. And above a certain size, both count as critical infrastructure that must be protected around the clock.
