About GeoPura:
GeoPura is revolutionising the way we generate power. As the world moves away from fossil fuels, we provide clean, hydrogen-powered energy solutions that supplement the grid and replace polluting diesel generators to support the transition to net zero. From construction and critical infrastructure to film & TV, live events, and EV charging, our Hydrogen Power Units (HPUs) deliver reliable, zero-emission electricity where it’s needed most.
Already one of the UK’s largest producers of green hydrogen, we’re growing fast. Ranked 6th in The Sunday Times 100 Tech, a list of Britain’s fastest-growing private technology companies, we’ve raised over £114 million in investment from global leaders including Siemens Energy Ventures, National Wealth Fund, Barclays Sustainable Impact Capital, GM Ventures, and SWEN Capital Partners. With strong financial backing and a clear path to scale, we are building a team that will shape the future of energy.
Our technology is already trusted by major organisations such as Balfour Beatty, HS2, National Grid, and the BBC, and we’re just getting started. As we expand across the UK and internationally, in collaboration with Siemens Energy, this is an exciting time to join a company at the forefront of the hydrogen revolution, making a real impact on air quality, carbon reduction, and the future of clean energy.
