+ 30 years of HAKOM – from start-up to scale-up.

With more than 30 years of know-how in the energy industry, over 100 customers in 15 countries and 150+ successful projects, HAKOM has positioned itself as a strong and sought-after partner of the energy industry. Since 1991 HAKOM has been following its successful path steadily and successfully and is a reliable and innovative partner for its customers.

The smallest components of matter are elementary particles, the smallest elements of the energy industry are data with time stamps, collected in time series. The further we look into the future, the more important time series become for the energy industry and those who depend on it – Smart City, Industry 4.0, Agriculture 4.0, Smart Metering, IoT, autonomous driving or 5G mobile networks are just some of the buzzwords that will change our world forever. Tomorrow. There, time-stamped data will be the lowest common denominator, the elementary particles of the energy industry collected in time series to control and link complex systems. Without the management of time series at all levels, our modern world will no longer function technically.

This current and booming market of the future is HAKOM's core business, making the elementary particles of the energy industry controllable and creating added value. Enrich data with time stamps so that numbers become values. This is HAKOM's sought-after competence.

The challenges in the area of time series management, in a disruptive market environment such as the energy industry, are enormous. In order to master them, it takes decades of expertise and a commitment to dedicate oneself exclusively to this highly complex subject with passion. The ability to validate and monitor Big Data, to analyze Big Data, no matter from which local source, system environment, formatting or screening the data material may originate and to always deliver useful results in a short time in this process, requires an innovative basic technology like HAKOM:

• Ingestion of Big Data at unbeatable processing speed,
• full database independence,
• proven energy logic,
• perfect API for easy integration into 3rd party systems,

are some core premises. HAKOM has developed its proprietary FeasyUse® technology to ensure that the whole thing remains suitable for everyday use, intuitive and easy to use without having to compromise on quality or performance. Because ingenious is simple and not complex.

Managing director and founding member of HAKOM, responsible for research and development as well as product management and after sales services.

Thomas Hasleder completed his studies in Technical Mathematics at the Vienna University of Technology. His scientific thesis already dealt with the energy industry: "Optimization of power plant operation under difficult conditions with regard to load change restrictions".

Hasleder has led the development of the innovative HAKOM time series technology since the company was founded. Hasleder constantly developed the technology of the PowerTSM® App with strategic foresight: from a TSM tool for a monopolistic energy industry to a powerful technology for a highly competitive energy industry that has to deal with topics such as Smart City, electromobility or IoT.

An important focus of Hasleder is also the responsibility of the Service Competence Center, which offers customers technical support within the scope of service contracts. Customers who use PowerTSM^® Technology always have a strong partner at their side.
