At the start of 2022, Christoph Ostermann will take over as Chairman of the Supervisory Board of ESFORIN SE from Dr. Ing. Klaus Kasper, who will remain a member of the Supervisory Board. Kasper has played a key role in shaping the company, drawing on his many years of experience as a former member of the Executive Board of the energy provider EnBW AG. His work since 2014 coincided with a dynamic start-up phase and provided the company with groundbreaking impetus.
As an experienced founder and investor, Ostermann is now set to help guide the company from a startup to an international market leader in flexibility trading in short-term markets: „ESFORIN is the key to the successful and cost-effective implementation of the energy transition, and as the new chairman of the supervisory board, I look forward to making an active contribution to the company,“ explains Ostermann.
