After a positive conclusion of the creditor proceedings
characterized by a very constructive spirit, the new owner of
Energetica Industries GmbH today presented the very concrete site
plans. "It is our clear goal to further expand the Liebenfels site
and the associated jobs, to train apprentices and to set up a
photovoltaic competence center. Energetica Industries GmbH fits
perfectly into the portfolio of IRMA Power GmbH, whose clear focus
is on renewable energy," says Martin Kurschel, owner of the IRMA
Investments Group and thus also of IRMA Power GmbH, about his
vision. "Our aim as a group of companies is to develop affordable
solutions for the major challenges of housing, energy, the
environment, health and nutrition. We clearly focus our thoughts
and actions on recognizing the right potential, seizing
opportunities and realizing innovations. Our society is facing a
sustainable transformation. And we will help shape them. That is
why, with the still relatively young subsidiary IRMA Power GmbH, we
are focusing on climate-friendly energy generation and its
storage," says Kurschel.
The market town of Liebenfels is very pleased with the plans
and the high investment of IRMA Power in the location. "We, the
market town of Liebenfels, are very happy about the new owner and
her goal of expanding the location and the associated jobs into a
competence center for photovoltaics. We wish IRMA Power and
Energetica Industries GmbH great economic success at the Liebenfels
site and fully express our support," said Mayor Klaus Köchl.
Rene Battistutti, founder of Energetica Industries GmbH, and
production manager Johannes Eberhard are confident. "The core team
has mastered the operational challenges of the last 7 months very
well thanks to their flexibility and commitment. We are pleased
about the continuation of Energetica and about securing jobs and
look positively to the future together, "said Eberhard.
"We want to become a competence center for green energy,"
explains Erwin Toplak, Managing Director of IRMA Power GmbH since
summer 2021. "My highly motivated team of top experts and I have
one goal in common: to develop innovative solutions in the field of
green energy with which we can meet future demands and needs in
terms of energy generation today. Pursuing this vision, I am
particularly pleased that with Energetica Industries GmbH we can
integrate a company with many highly qualified employees and with
enormous potential into IRMA Power GmbH," says Toplak. "In the
short term, the aim is to consolidate and stabilize finances and
production, to optimize processes and to set up another production
line quite quickly. In the medium term, we plan to build our own
power supply using fuel cells in combination with photovoltaic. We
also have in mind the combination of fuel cells with biogas. In
order to be able to create a relevant offer, we will use innovative
storage technologies. In the longer term, further production lines
and the production of hydrogen are on the agenda. To be able to
realize all this, we count on the competence of the employees. We
want to create more jobs and impart competence at the location.
Specifically, we will create apprenticeships and invest massively
in the training and further education of our team to develop a
competence center "Green Energy" at the site." (continues)
