MUNICH, Germany — January 16, 2024 — Atmen, a Munich-based regulatory technology company, announced a successful €1.3 million pre-seed funding round today. The round was led by Revent with co-investment from Vireo Ventures with participation from UnternehmerTUM and angel investors. Atmen, previously known as Point Twelve, harnesses IoT and SaaS to provide transparent, dynamic and automated carbon intensity tracking supporting the official certification process for energy-intensive industries. The company starts with hydrogen and e-fuels.
Atmen’s technology is poised to meet the surging demand for precise, scalable processes in support of certification, especially crucial for energy-intensive industries that contribute significantly to CO2 emissions. The investment will accelerate Atmen's mission to support the official certification process by replacing outdated, manual, unpredictable processes with a streamlined, automated approach.
“We are thrilled to lead Atmen's funding round,” said Henrik Grosse Hokamp, Partner at Revent. “Industrial decarbonization is one of the most pressing challenges of our decade. Unless carbon intensity is continuously tracked and certified, producers cannot prove their target achievement and product decarbonization cannot be incentivized.”
Atmen addresses a critical energy transition segment by focusing on hydrogen and e-fuels. The evolving EU regulations, including the Renewable Energy Directive mandating a 42% renewable hydrogen quota by 2030 and financial mechanisms like the EU Emissions Trading System and Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, are pushing industries towards greener alternatives. These regulations, along with potential penalties for not using sufficient synthetic fuels in sectors like maritime and aviation by 2030, create a compelling economic factor for industries to adapt.
Atmen recognizes the challenges of aligning with market demands and regulatory compliance. To tackle these issues, the company offers technology that enables producers to incorporate automated, streamlined processes to support sustainability certification right from the initial design phase of their products and supply chains. In addition, the company collaborates with industry partners to both promote Digital Product Passports as a norm for hydrogen and e-fuels and to enable compliance technologies.
Leading renewable hydrogen producer Lhyfe and TÜV NORD count among Atmen's key partners.
Digital Product Passports digitally record, process, and share product sustainability information among supply chain partners, authorities, and consumers. This initiative aims to help hydrogen and e-fuel producers comply with changing regulations and globally competing certification standards.
"We are at a turning point in how industries verify their sustainability efforts," remarked Flore de Durfort, Co-founder & CEO of Atmen. “Hydrogen and e-fuels are a core piece of industrial decarbonization, but also the first energy-intensive products for which the pressure and complexity to prove and certify decarbonization are so acute”.
“Carbon intensity tracking and certification processes are the biggest pain points in scaling the green hydrogen economy and we believe that Atmen´s solution has the potential to become the industry-setting standard in this field. Once achieved, this offers enormous potential to be a new category-defining player to support official certification of all low-carbon products.,” added Sven Heiligtag, Partner at Vireo Ventures.
With this funding, Atmen is well-positioned to deliver its cutting-edge automation platform to market, supporting the transition to a low-carbon economy.
Atmen is a regulatory technology company based in Munich, Germany, innovating in carbon intensity certification automation. The company was founded by Flore de Durfort, Quentin Cangelosi and Erika Degoute in Munich in January 2023 with competencies at the crossing of energy markets and regulation and technology. With a focus on energy-intensive industries, Atmen’s platform is designed to facilitate large-scale, verifiable decarbonization processes. For more information, visit www.atmen.co

Munich – 30. October, 2025 – Siemens and Atmen have signed a Global Strategic Partnership Agreement (GSPA) to jointly promote interoperable digital and compliance solutions for green hydrogen and Power-to-X (PtX) projects.
The partnership combines Siemens’ digital capabilities with Atmen’s regulatory automation platform to jointly promote solutions that support compliant power-to-X supply chain development. By aligning digital plant design with certification requirements from the start, the two companies aim to help developers accelerate readiness for evolving schemes and standards, such as those included in the EU Renewable Energy Directive.
“Atmen’s modules could now integrate seamlessly with Siemens’ digital twin and control tower technologies, turning scattered data into a continuous flow,” said Flore de Durfort, CEO of Atmen.
“Siemens’ tools assist companies in building and operating smart supply chains and testing scenarios. Paired with Atmen’s certification platform, engineers and procurement teams get the info needed to stay compliant, resilient, and ensure products meet standards.”
The agreement establishes a structured collaboration between the two companies. Siemens and Atmen seek to coordinate on a shared pipeline of opportunities, align early in tenders and strategic projects, and participate jointly in selected trade fairs and customer engagements.

A bi-annual steering committee, led by senior managers from both companies, aims to review market trends and collaboration opportunities. A dedicated working group then facilitates coordination on ongoing business development and portfolio alignment.
“Our partnership aspires for innovation, credibility, traceability and sustainability from design through operation,” said Peter Ammann, Head of Center of Competence for Siemens’ Hydrogen business.
“Siemens’ and Atmen’s strengths combined pave the way for green hydrogen’s end-to-end value chain becoming a cornerstone of a decarbonized global energy system.”
The partnership is non-exclusive and does not involve technology integration at this stage. Instead, both companies will continue to develop their respective platforms independently, while enabling interoperability in customer projects of mutual interest and involvement.
Together, Siemens and Atmen aim to significantly reduce project risk, lower the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH), and enhance trust in the traceability and sustainability of hydrogen and PtX projects across Europe and beyond.

About Atmen
Atmen (atmen.co) is a regulatory technology company providing the data infrastructure that powers the trusted certification of industrial products. Atmen focuses on automating certification and enabling large-scale, verifiable supply chain transparency across energy-intensive industries.
Founded in January 2023 by energy and regulation experts Flore de Durfort, Quentin Cangelosi, and Erika Degoute, Atmen has raised €6.3M to date to build technology that certifies industrial goods, starting with clean fuels.
Headquartered in Munich, the company's platform is deployed across industrial sites in 9 countries, automating certification workflows and enabling verifiable proof of product attributes throughout the supply chain.


At Atmen, we build the data infrastructure that enables certification of clean industrial supply chains. That means working with some of the most sensitive information our customers hold: real operational data. A recurring question we hear is simple but crucial — “If we entrust you with this data, how do we know it’s secure?”
Today, we can give a clear and independent answer. Atmen has achieved ISO 27001 certification, the globally recognized standard for information security management.
ISO27001 is the benchmark for how companies manage, protect, and audit data. It requires a systematic approach to information security across people, processes, and technology. Earning this certification is proof that Atmen meets international best practices for confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information.

ISO27001 is assurance that compliance automation at scale does not come at the expense of security. For our customers, it means:
Certification is not a one-off milestone. ISO27001 requires ongoing governance and annual audits by independent assessors. For Atmen, it’s part of a broader commitment: embedding security into every layer of our technology and operations as we scale.
This achievement reinforces Atmen’s mission to enable secure, scalable certification across Europe’s clean energy supply chains. Security and scalability don’t have to be in conflict — and ISO27001 is proof.
