Many HVAC installations underperform and over-pollute.  Enter Hydronic System Optimisation, better known as Hysopt.

Founded in 2013 by Roel Vandenbulcke (CEO and founder) on the basis of his PhD thesis with the goal of changing the status quo in the architect, engineer & contractor (AEC) market when it came to energy optimization and reducing carbon emissions.

Hysopt offers BIM-compatible software to the AEC market that enables the engineering and simulation of large complex HVAC systems in commercial and industrial real estate. Hysopt’s mathematical, full-system model describes all applicable laws of physics (thermal, hydraulic, control, and dynamic) without compromising on the complexity of the system.

Distribution system operators (DSOs) are standing on the precipice of a massive digitization wave to get the most out of the distribution grid in the decentralized energy world. Haulogy is a trusted software supplier and integrator for DSOs and energy utilities.

Haulogy was founded in 2005 as a software development and integration company with a strong track record in customer information systems (CIS) for energy suppliers and distribution grid operators in Belgium.

Under the leadership of current CEO Charles Delhaye, Haulogy has successfully expanded in France and the Netherlands, delivering sustainable double-digit growth. The company has since expanded its software solutions portfolio to include asset and field services management solutions and congestion/flexibility/energy communities management solutions for DSOs.
