REVERION GmbH

Company Overview

Name

REVERION GmbH (private German company, spin-off from the Technical University of Munich)

Headquarters

Eresing, Germany

Founded

2022

Size

Approximately 100 employees (source: linkedin.com)

What They Do

REVERION GmbH develops reversible high-temperature fuel cell power plants specifically designed for electricity generation from biogas and power-to-gas energy storage (source: linkedin.com). Their core product is a containerized, modular power plant based on patented high-temperature fuel cell systems, serving both as a decentralized power source and as long-term energy storage (source: reverion.com). In power generation mode, the system converts biogas into electricity with high electrical efficiency, while in storage mode it produces renewable gases such as hydrogen or methane through electrolysis (source: digital.eurotier.com). The product is designed as an "all-in-one" solution that is containerized, plug-and-play ready, and optimized for mass production (source: linkedin.com). Target markets primarily include farmers, biogas plant operators, and industrial customers who use biogas as a raw material or require a weather-independent, decentralized energy and storage solution (source: netzeroinsights.com).

Projects & Track Record

In September 2025, REVERION set a world record for the electrical efficiency of its high-temperature fuel cell power plants at 74.2%, marking a significant technological breakthrough (source: reverion.com). The company has already commissioned a 100 kW pre-series unit and is developing a 500 kW system, aiming to start serial production at the Eresing site from 2026 (source: reverion.com). The modular, containerized design allows for flexible and scalable use, suitable for both decentralized power generation and long-term storage solutions (source: digital.eurotier.com). The combination of high efficiency, reversible operation, and industrial mass production positions REVERION as an innovative provider in the renewable energy sector (source: linkedin.com).

Recent Developments

Over the past two years, REVERION has achieved several key milestones, including the successful world record efficiency measurement in 2025 (source: reverion.com). The company is preparing the transition from pre-series to serial production and is actively seeking a larger production facility in Germany to support growth (source: reverion.com). Strategic partnerships have been established with Doosan Fuel Cell for fuel cell technology and with Frontier for new biogas-based carbon removal pathways (source: reverion.com). Additionally, REVERION received funding of 19.5 million euros from the European Innovation Fund and completed a Series A financing round to advance industrial scaling (source: reverion.com). Andreas Aepli was appointed Chief Financial Officer to support the next phase of growth (source: reverion.com).

Working There

REVERION offers an interdisciplinary work environment with teams from engineering, production, automation, business, and human resources (source: reverion.com). The leadership team consists of founders Stephan Herrmann (CEO), Felix Fischer (COO), Jeremias Weinrich (CPO), Maximilian Hauck (CTO), and Luis Poblotzki (CDO), guiding the company through the transition from research and development to industrial serial production (source: reverion.com). Current and upcoming positions include product development, production ramp-up, automation, and industrial scaling, all based at the headquarters in Eresing (source: reverion.com). The planned expansion of production capacity could create up to 800 new jobs, indicating strong growth potential (source: reverion.com). The company positions itself as a climate-focused startup with high impact, promoting interdisciplinary collaboration and building a production organization for serial manufacturing in Germany (source: reverion.com).
