HydroGraph Clean Power has announced the opening of its new headquarters in Austin, Texas, having received its certificate of occupancy in March 2026. The new facility will centralize key executive and operating functions, as well as expand the company's research and production capabilities to support continued growth activities.

Why it matters

The new Austin headquarters marks a significant milestone for HydroGraph as it looks to scale up its graphene production and meet growing demand, especially from the federal government which is seeking a secure domestic supply of this critical material.

The details

The new facility will house two active Hyperion Reactors and serve as the control hub for HydroGraph's planned large-scale production facility, which is anticipated to support up to 350 tons per year of capacity. The company is also transitioning key equipment and resources from its Manhattan, KS facility to Austin, including scientific equipment, the detonation lab, and additional Hyperion Reactors. The new headquarters will also allow HydroGraph to further expand its workforce, having recently hired a plant manager for the planned large-scale facility.

  • HydroGraph received its certificate of occupancy for the new Austin headquarters in March 2026.
  • The company plans to commence a second phase of construction at its Austin facility later in 2026 to support integration of new equipment and assets.
