Solargis Names Michael Strba As CEO For Its Singapore Division

Solargis has opened a new office in Singapore, which will be led by Michal Strba, the newly appointed CEO of Solargis APAC.

The Singapore office will seek out new opportunities and support the company's expanding customer base in APAC, which is spread across one of the world's most complex environments for solar PV power generation due to its variable terrain, topography, and dotted geography of its island nation states.

The levels of solar resource variability experienced in the region over the past 12 months were highlighted in Solargis' recent 2022 Global Solar Performance study.

As the APAC solar market expands, demand for reliable tools to understand climate impacts on investment prospects and operational portfolios grows.

Michal Strba, CEO, Solargis APAC, said: “APAC is a significant, yet complex market for development and operation of solar portfolios. Solar investors face numerous market-specific resource risks that significantly impact investment and operational decisions. By bringing our international expertise, granular solar data and software services closer to our APAC clients, we aim to help investors in the region increase their confidence as they drive forward the energy transition.”

Marcel Suri, CEO, Solargis, said: “Our new Singapore office strengthens our position as a globally trusted reference point for solar data, software and expertise. Michal Strba has proven himself time and time again in Asia. His expertise on China, its language and business culture, make him well-placed to lead our APAC operation. We look forward to strengthening our existing relationships and forming new partnerships with investors seeking to de-risk their solar investments.”
