HPS appoints Kevin Schröder and Nicholas Matten to the management board

HPS Home Power Solutions AG (HPS), the world’s leading provider of green hydrogen-based all-season electricity storage for buildings, has further strengthened its management team. Kevin Schröder is responsible for all sales activities in his new role as “Vice President Sales” and Dr. Nicholas Matten is responsible for the transformation of the company’s partners business as “Vice President Business Development”.

Zeyad Abul-Ella, CEO and founder of HPS:

“We are pleased to welcome Kevin as an HPS employee from the very beginning and Nicholas as a manager with many years of experience in the renewable energy sector to the management team. We have been able to attract the ideal combination of skills. Together, we will continue to drive forward our growth plans and realize our vision of enabling all our customers to live and work CO2-free with a self-determined, renewable and independent energy supply. Kevin and Nicholas will help us offer our unique product to customers and partners and position us strongly for the long term.”

Kevin Schröder joined HPS in 2015 and so accompanied the company since its beginnings. He has, like no other, a deep understanding of our product, our customers and the market. As a specialist with an academic background in renewable energies, he has worked in various departments at HPS, from the development department and product management to IT and sales. In this context, he was responsible for the development of corporate processes in a leading position.

Dr. Nicholas John Matten looks back on a long career with internationally renowned companies in the field of energy and building technology. For many years he worked as Managing Director at Stiebel Eltron, a leading company in the renewable energy, heating and building technology market. The experience of bringing a new and complex technology like the heat pump to the market through newly created sales channels provides an ideal prerequisite for the upcoming task at HPS.

HPS is a global leader in the development and production of integrated energy storage systems based on green hydrogen for buildings. With the innovative year-round energy storage system called picea, HPS addresses key areas of the energy transition. Surpluses generated by a photovoltaic system on sunny days are stored as green hydrogen and made available again in the dark seasons in the form of electricity and heat. This enables buildings to be supplied with solar energy from their own roofs throughout the year. The Berlin-based company was founded in 2014 by Zeyad Abul-Ella and Dr. Henrik Colell. HPS has won several prestigious awards for picea, including the Handelsblatt Energy Award, the Innovationspreis Berlin-Brandenburg, and the Sustainability Challenge of the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB).
