Hahn Projects is shaping the future of wind energy: focus on data sovereignty and innovation

The wind energy industry is changing, and Hahn Projects is at the forefront of driving innovation, improving sustainability and increasing efficiency. We are proud to be part of the pioneering Wind-X project, which is creating a data ecosystem for innovative and sustainable wind turbines across the entire lifecycle.

What is Wind-X?

Wind-X aims to develop a federated, decentralized data space for the wind industry based on a cloud-edge infrastructure. By transferring experience, technologies and solutions from initiatives such as Catena-X, Gaia-X and Manufacturing-X, the aim is to simplify collaboration and the exchange of information between companies. The focus is on the secure exchange of information without losing control or authorship in order to create the basis for new, forward-looking business models.

Hahn Projects: Your partner for innovative solutions in wind energy

As an established player with the SaaS platform HAWIC for the technical management of wind turbines and PV systems and ADAM for asset management in industrial maintenance, Hahn Projects brings extensive expertise to the project. Our many years of experience and our commitment to innovative technologies make us the ideal partner for the challenges of the wind energy sector.

A key contribution of Hahn Projects is the development and provision of a reference implementation of the Wind-X Edge Cloud platform.

Project goals of Hahn Projects

With Wind-X, Hahn Projects is pursuing ambitious goals from which you can also benefit:
