Not sure if there is an “objective” definition of hypomania, or if it just means: slightly more manic than your usual state. Like, whether my hypomania could be someone else’s normal. So I’m going to ignore this part and assume that your question meant: “How to increase your energy levels?”
(The following are just my guesses; I didn’t do any research.)
First, check whether you have some known problem that causes low energy, such as depression, anemia, sleep apnea, etc. Get diagnosed, use the standard solutions.
(People will recommend experimenting with drugs. I suggest caution, because of selection effect: those who survive are more likely to talk about how perfectly safe it is.)
Get fit: exercise regularly, lose weight. Get enough sleep. Eat healthy food.
Spend more time outside. Install stronger lights at home.
Remove trivial inconveniences at your home and workplace. Clean up your room. Buy things that can help you be more productive. (Buy cheap things if you merely suspect that they could make you more productive. If you think that writing things using pens of three different colors can help you, you may be right or you may be wrong, but the time you would spend thinking about it is definitely more expensive than those pens.)
Having a support group can help a lot. Try pair programming. Socialize with people who share your goals. Find an accountability buddy. Discuss your dreams with friends.
...sometimes: Do a different thing. Sometimes the problem is not you, but the thing you wanted to achieve, or the environment where you wanted to achieve it.
