Interview optimisation and low-carbon materials is the way of the future, and we have recently received a grant from the EU to develop a carbon negative concrete, taking our lowcarbon approach to the next level. less CO₂, significantly reducing health and safety risks in both cases.
We have also started a highly impactful collaboration with a large energy client that will be announced soon.
You’ ve already delivered projects for major players like Iberdrola and Yorkshire Water— can you walk us through one of those projects and the key results Hyperion delivered? We have successfully delivered projects, primarily in the UK where we have delivered our core products: foundations, drawpits and water( distribution) chambers.
Iberdrola, one of the largest renewable energy companies in the world, and its subsidiary Scottish Power( SPEN) were our first clients in this sector, where we designed, 3D printed and tested our low-carbon foundation for one of their substations, demonstrating huge benefits( 75 per cent less materials, 60 per cent less CO₂ and 50 per cent programme reduction), while showing three times the strength needed compared to conventional methods.
This project was a great milestone that generated global interest and helped jumpstart multiple collaborations in the UK with companies like MMB, Yorkshire Water, Severn Trent, Anglian Water and United Utilities. A couple of relevant examples are the foundations( pipe supports) we delivered to the Strongford Net Zero site from Severn Trent, where we helped our client MMB reduce 50 per cent of project costs, 50 per cent of CO₂, and realise 70 per cent of programme savings. On the delivery of water distribution chambers for Yorkshire Water, we provided 50 per cent cost reduction, 70 per cent programme savings and 30 per cent
Where do you see the industry headed in the next five years— and what role do you envision Hyperion playing in the transformation of infrastructure delivery, not just in the UK but globally? We envision becoming a world class construction technology leader with a strong presence across the UK and Europe within the next five years. By then, our robotic factories and micro factories will be delivering entire civil infrastructures for largescale projects such as electrical substations, water treatment plants, and data centres.
Through our innovative solutions, we will save millions of tons of CO₂ emissions and deliver significant cost reductions for our clients, while generating high-skill jobs and driving measurable social value in the industry and beyond. This process will take us closer to our North Star of eliminating one
billion tons of CO₂ annually and creating a more sustainable, cost-efficient future for all.
Is there anything else you’ d like to add? With growing demand for sustainable infrastructure in the UK and Europe, Hyperion Robotics is positioned to lead a major shift in construction. We’ re focused on scaling our impact, partnering with forwardthinking players, and delivering real value— one low-carbon foundation at a time. ■
