Pune/Hamburg: As of 1 August, Lars Rytter has taken over as Chief Operating Officer at REpower.

Tulsi Tanti, Chairman of the Supervisory Board, said: "I am extremely pleased to announce the appointment of Russell Stoddart as the new Chief Technology Officer of REpower. His experience and engineering pedigree speak for themselves and I know that he will make a significant contribution at REpower. We are also delighted to welcome Lars Rytter back to the Company as Chief Operating Officer. These appointments further enhance our strong Executive Board team, and we wish them luck in their new roles."

The new Management Board of REpower Systems GmbH has also been set up: Hendrik Böschen succeeds Kyriakos Kosmidis, who left the company on 31 July 2013. In November 2011, Hendrik Böschen took up the position of Head of Sales for Poland, the Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland and the Czech Republic at REpower Systems GmbH. Kai Froböse remains Commercial Managing Director of REpower Systems GmbH. Kai Froböse is responsible for Project  Management, Service, Finance & Controlling. Hendrik Böschen will oversee Sales and Lifecycle Engineering.

CEO Andreas Nauen said: “We are pleased that, with the reinforcement taken from our own ranks, we are ensuring a more intensive market focus for the countries of Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Poland and the Czech Republic.”
