Thomas Öström, CEO:
”We are both proud and thankful to welcome Karl to Climeon. When our current head of R&D Anders Marcusson moves over to a more focused architecture role it feels good to hand over the leadership to Karl Brodin. He has a strong and very relevant track record related to bringing new products from small volumes and up to global multi billion SEK revenue. Karl’s strengths are to see the customer needs and how to convert these into offerings. On top of this he has a strong history of leading small and large R&D teams”

Karl Brodin, Head of R&D:
”I look forward to working at Climeon. Our goal is to make Heat Power as well established as Solar Power and Wind Power. I believe that is avhievable. Heat power usually has a lower cost, requires less space, and delivers a stabil electricity amount regardless of the time of day and the time of year which Solar Power and Wind Power don’t. Climeon is the world leader within the low temperature Heat Power segment, where the biggest volumes are found.”
