Meyer Burger has appointed ex-SolarWorld executive Daniel Menzel as its new managing director. Menzel, who spent nearly 10 years at SolarWorld, will oversee Meyer Burgers production, global supply chain, purchasing, and quality assurance in his new position, which will start immediately. The company opened two new manufacturing facilities in Germany this month as it plans to scale up its heterojunction (HJ) cell and module capacity to more than 5GW in the coming years. Menzel will work with fellow MD Moritz Borgmann to drive the expansion of Meyer Burgers new production sites.
