Ohmium International Inc. announced a strategic executive addition today. The green hydrogen manufacturer hired industry veteran Mark Griffin as Chief Commercial Officer. In addition, as Chief Commercial Officer, Griffin is directly responsible for leading global sales and marketing operations. He is very focused on driving global revenue growth and customer acquisition.
His key responsibilities also include the expansion of global ecosystems across developers, industrial collaborators, and strategic partners. Ohmium manufactures modular, high-efficiency Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzer systems. This key appointment therefore brings new commercial momentum as green hydrogen moves to mainstream deployment.
Demonstrated Leadership in the Energy Transition
Griffin brings over 20 years of experience in energy, hydrogen and renewables to the new role. Prior to that, he spent five years at ScottishPower leading on hydrogen market development and business energy sales. He oversaw two multi-megawatt green hydrogen projects worth over £220 million in his time. Both projects are supported by government subsidies and have secured 15-year offtake deals for decarbonization in heavy industry.
These successful projects created replicable supply models while deepening Griffin’s expertise in energy strategy and risk management. Prior to ScottishPower, he spent over a decade at BOC UK and Ireland. There, he built a start-up fuel cell business into a consistent growth engine. As a result, the business achieved 20% year-over-year revenue growth over six consecutive years.
Meanwhile, he managed major national accounts and secured multi-million-pound operational subsidies through Contracts for Difference (CfD) bids.
“In a time when energy security and resilience are paramount, Mark brings the expertise and commercial drive Ohmium needs. His hands-on experience delivering large-scale hydrogen projects, navigating complex global markets, and building long-term customer relationships will be critical as we accelerate deployment and deepen our customer base worldwide,” said Dr. Markus Tacke, CEO, Ohmium International.
Scaling Global Commercial Operations
Currently, Ohmium maintains a global green hydrogen project pipeline exceeding 2 GW across three continents. Therefore, appointing a seasoned Chief Commercial Officer strengthens the company’s ability to capitalize on clean energy demand. In addition, the new Chief Commercial Officer will translate this extensive pipeline into long-term customer partnerships.
“The opportunity to build enduring, high-value green hydrogen relationships is here, and Ohmium has the technology, pipeline, and team to lead the charge. I’m excited to create meaningful impact for our customers. Winning teams are built on commitment, accountability, and collaboration. These are values I have lived through my career and 18 years as a player and eventual coach of rugby. I will bring them to Ohmium from day one,” said Mark Griffin, CCO, Ohmium International.
Furthermore, Ohmium continues positioning itself as an international market leader in zero-carbon hydrogen solutions. Ultimately, hiring an experienced Chief Commercial Officer ensures sustained growth and robust commercial expansion. Likewise, this strategic move reinforces corporate vision during an era of rapid energy transformation.
