Kallinchen, August 2018. With an internal restructuring process the Energiequelle GmbH is preparing itself for future opportunities and challenges. Already in July the company organized info-events in the headquarters in Kallinchen and Bremen to inform all employees about the restructuring process.

One of his first tasks will be the implementation of an international project team in Kallinchen and the exploitation of new markets for Energiequelle. “The market environment for the wind industry and all renewable energies is currently facing severe changes. It is necessary to adjust accordingly. I am looking forward to facing these challenges within a sustainable and future orientated company like Energiequelle”, says Marc Waltrich when questioned about his motivation for an occupational change.
Innovations in the new business development division

Reasons for restructuring
Bundling of competences, abolishing of division boundaries and a stronger focus on international markets have been the main reasons for the restructuring. “We want to support each other, no matter if a project is developed in Brandenburg or Pakistan.

In this process it has been very important for us to maintain existing and to create even new jobs. A first step has been made with Marc Waltrich.
