Others

• Signify (Philips Lighting): Global leader in professional lighting systems and connected lighting (Interact platform). Comparable as the primary supplier of LED fixtures and smart lighting control technology that THMP deploys across its 135,000+ lamp post network.

Broad incumbents

• JCDecaux: Global leader in street furniture and outdoor advertising, including bus shelters. THMP acquired part of JCDecaux's Prague shelter operations in 2024, making it a former competitor and current supplier/counterparty in the same street furniture vertical.
• Veolia: Global municipal services operator covering water, waste, and energy for cities. Comparable as a broad incumbent offering integrated urban infrastructure services, though at multinational scale rather than single-city focus.
• Engie: Multinational utility with significant municipal and district energy services, including public lighting modernization and EV charging solutions. Comparable as a broad energy and urban services incumbent that overlaps with THMP's energy and EV charging businesses.

Direct peers

• Stadtwerke München: Munich's municipal utility providing energy, public transport, telecommunications, and public swimming pools. Comparable as a German-speaking municipal infrastructure operator bundling multiple city services under one entity.
• Stadtwerke Leipzig: German municipal utility operating energy, public transport, drinking water, and gas. Comparable as a city-owned infrastructure operator with energy trading, distribution, and adjacent urban services in a single market.
• Wiener Stadtwerke: Vienna's municipal multi-utility (energy, public transport, funeral services, real estate). Directly comparable to THMP as a city-owned operator running integrated urban infrastructure and energy trading across a single metro market.
• PRE (Pražská energetika): Prague's incumbent electricity distribution and supply company and the parent of PREdistribuce (THMP's core partner). Operates in the same city and same energy value chain, making it the closest in-market comparable for energy distribution and EV charging.

Emerging players

• ChargePoint: Largest EV charging network in Europe and North America with hardware, software, and network services. Comparable as a private EV charging operator whose network expansion could compete with THMP's planned 1,500+ station rollout in Prague.
• EVBox: European EV charging hardware and software provider focused on AC and DC charging for commercial and residential use. Comparable as a competing EV charging operator whose wallbox products compete with THMP's EVR lamppost chargers.
