Why HyJack Let's hijack the trend of greenhouse gas emissions - together.

The green hydrogen revolution has only started but it is already receiving mounting expectations. Always “bigger”, “faster”. At HyJack we believe that to build an inclusive momentum where everybody in the H2 community can face the challenge, we must contribute with our understanding on the hydrogen industry and digital development tools. We designed HyJack.tech platform to facilitate the H2 project prefeasibility processes and to accelerate the introductory process within the H2 ecosystem. We are an independent company wishing to bring together hydrogen and digital tool experts. We believe that everybody regardless of the size of the company must have access to our platform. Hence, we made it free.
