In this episode of the 2Tokens Podcast, hosts Jos Röling and Alex Bausch welcome long-time contributor of the Energy Working Group: Edgar Kampers, co-founder of Hypha Energy. This episode is a lively conversation about the future of renewable energy communities in Europe.
Together they have an honest and energetic exploration of why building these communities is so challenging today and why the timing for a new approach has never been better. Edgar explains how Hypha’s tokenized, DAO-inspired system can cut administrative burdens by more than 90%, simplify ownership and decision-making, and help residents meaningfully participate in their local energy future, without needing deep technical knowledge or endless community meetings.
Jos and Alex push the conversation into the practical realities: how do you actually motivate people to engage with energy data they don’t care about? Can tokens really change consumer behavior? How do decentralized communities coexist with the massive DSOs that still control Europe’s energy infrastructure? Edgar shares his vision for community-driven ownership, blended financing models, and the social value of producing and consuming energy locally.
The episode also looks ahead at Hypha Energy’s first pilots in Portugal, upcoming deployments in Norway, the Netherlands, and Poland, and the crucial role of partners already embedded in local ecosystems: municipalities, housing associations, consultants, and organizations like 2Tokens.
If you’re curious about the intersection of tokenization, decentralization, and the future of local energy, this episode is absolutely worth a listen.
