Hans Autenrieth and Peter Augustin, Management Board members of many years’ standing, will step down from the Management Board as of the end of December 31, 2015 in best amicable agreement with the Supervisory Board. This was also approved by way of a Supervisory Board resolution today.
As a consequence, the Management Board of centrotherm photovoltaics AG will consist of two members from January 1, 2016, instead of three, thereby adjusting the size of the Management Board to reflect the company’s dimension. Boris Klebensberger and CFO Florian von Gropper will assume the Management Board areas of responsibility of Hans Autenrieth and Peter Augustin.
With Boris Klebensberger, whose most recent position was that of Management Board member with responsibility for the operating business at SolarWorld AG, Bonn, centrotherm gains a proven sector expert and internationally experienced manager with particular expertise in the areas of production, technology and cost management, research & development, and the restructuring and reorganization of global processes.
