Swedish solar energy technology company Midsummer has hired 30 new employees since the beginning of the year to ramp up production in the wake of increased demand. The company has recently recruited a new production manager, Sven Pettersson, whose most recent assignment was with Saab Industrial Group, where he worked with logistics, purchasing and production planning.
The company is experiencing greater global interest in DUO, the company’s proprietary system for fast, fully automated manufacturing of CIGS solar cells.
Pettersson has been working at the defense industry group Saab since 2011 in a variety of roles, most recently as production controller responsible for logistics and purchasing. He has previously worked with similar tasks in other companies, including Strålfors AB and Aerosol Scandinavia AB. Pettersson starts his new employment at Midsummer on August 21.
“Mr. Pettersson has extensive knowledge and experience in logistics, purchasing and production planning. As Midsummer’s new production manager, he will be a good addition as we now intend to further increase our production rate to meet the increased global demand for our products,” said Sven Lindström, CEO of Midsummer AB.
Since the beginning of 2018 Midsummer has increased the number of employees from 45 to 75, and plans are made for further recruitment in technology as well as marketing and sales.
