Today marks the beginning of a new chapter at IBC SOLAR: Julius Möhrstedt officially takes over as CEO of IBC SOLAR AG – and with that, assumes responsibility for a company that has been shaping the energy transition for over 40 years. At the same time, we bid farewell to Dr. Dirk Haft in his role as CEO. We sincerely thank him for his dedication, foresight, and valuable collaboration.
Dr. Haft took over as CEO in April 2024 – during a period marked by great dynamism and strategic realignment within the solar industry. During this time, he provided important momentum to IBC SOLAR and played a significant role in driving its development forward. As originally planned, he will now return to the Supervisory Board.
With Julius Möhrstedt, a new leader takes the helm of the family-run company – someone who has known IBC SOLAR for many years and has already helped shape it in various roles. As former Head of Sales for the Central Europe region and Transition Manager, he brings not only expertise and management experience, but also a deep connection to the company’s culture.

Julius Möhrstedt – son of our founder Udo Möhrstedt – has literally known IBC SOLAR since he was a child. He represents continuity, but also fresh ideas and a clear vision. This generational shift is not only a change in leadership – it also symbolizes the ongoing evolution of our family business into a new era.
He expresses his goals clearly: “We want to continue growing, drive innovation, and actively contribute to the energy transition together with our partners.”
We look forward to this new chapter!
