SMA founder Günther Cramer, 62, dies
Günther Cramer, SMA Solar Technology AG’s founder and longstanding CEO of the solar inverter manufacturers company, has died aged 62 after battling a long and difficult illness.
The company released a press statement this morning paying homage to Cramer’s work and positive influence on the clean energy landscape.
Current SMA CEO Pierre-Pascal Urbon spoke of Cramer’s “courage, passion and commitment to energy transition”, while cdw Stiftungsverbund managing director Volker Wasgindt called Cramer an “exceptional person” who would “always have a lasting place in our hearts”.
Günther Cramer was an early pioneer in the world of decentralized, renewable energy and foresaw great potential in the sector long before many of his peers. Alongside his trusted partners Peter Drews and Reiner Wettlaufer, Cramer transformed SMA from a small engineering firm to a globally-admired technology leader.
Cramer’s work has been pivotal in setting the world on the path towards a 100% decentralized and renewable energy supply. His efforts were recognized by a number of leading institutions, earning him the German Environmental Award and the fulsome respect of his peers.
Even after leaving the SMA managing board, Cramer continued to pour his passion into renewable energy initiatives, founding the Günther Cramer Foundation – which is part of the cdw Stiftungsverbund GmbH foundation network – and working on the electrification of remote regions worldwide with the aid of renewable energies.
More widely, Cramer’s work helped set in motion the transition of energy architectures from centralized, large-scale and conventional power plants to more adaptable, decentralized and clean renewable power generation units. Cramer’s motto: “Let’s be realists and attempt the impossible”, continues to shape the vision and perseverence of all SMA and cdw Stiftungsverbund offices.
“In Günther Cramer, we have lost an extraordinary person whom we will never forget,” said SMA’s Urbon. “As the company founder, CEO and Chairman of the Supervisory Board, he shaped the history of SMA and its employees throughout his entire life. His courage, passion and commitment to the energy transition will always continue to serve as a model and an inspiration to us.”
Deutsche Bank predicts growing solar margins in 2015, despite oil price
Deutsche Bank analysis has tended to be bullish on solar and its 2015 solar outlook, delivered today, did not stray from this song sheet. In a key message for investors, Deutsche said that reductions of oil prices would have little to no material impact on solar demand.
“We expect a balanced supply demand outlook as strong demand from the U.S. and improving demand from China/other emerging solar markets offsets any potential demand weakness in the UK/Japan,” writes Deutsche Bank solar analyst Vishal Shah. Shah noted that solar’s share of the electricity generation mix continues to grow.
The U.S. market was identified by Deutsche as representing a bright spot, with the growing rooftop market described as being “the key highlight.” Deutsche noted positively, “utilities will also start competing in the [downstream] solar market [in 2015].”
Financial innovation, in the form of yieldcos, was highlighted by Deutsche as an important theme, with the analysis concluding that the firms that have already built experience in yieldcos have first mover advantage. The investment house expects companies to begin launching yieldcos of international solar assets in 2015.
Deutsche Bank’s Shah identified SunEdison, SolarCity, Vivint Solar and SunPower as being particularly attractive stocks. The inclusion of Vivint comes at a time when predatory shareholder class action lawsuits continue to swirl around the solar lease provider.
While falling oil prices have lead to a weakening in solar stocks in recent weeks, Deutsche noted that this presented investors with, “an attractive entry point for investors.”
The full analysis presented detailed figures as to why oil prices should have little to no correlation to solar stocks.
“Oil represents only about 5% of global electricity production and in some of the important solar markets such as the U.S. and China, oil based electricity generation is less than 5% of the total,” the Deutsche Bank analysis noted. “Moreover, the fuel cost of oil based electricity generation even at US$50 oil prices is in the 7-9c/kWh range and as shown in the note, the marginal electricity cost is higher than solar in many regions worldwide.”
ZTE 50MWp distributed PV power plants grid

Advanced Energy considers PV inverter sell-off
Power control manufacturer Advanced Energy (AE) is considering the future of its PV inverter business with a sell-off not ruled out.
The company confirmed that it is looking at a number of options for the unit including licensing, partnerships and a sale.
“As part of our annual strategic planning process, we reviewed our entire business to determine the best portfolio mix to achieve our strategic objectives and build shareholder value,” said Yuval Wasserman, president and CEO. “We concluded that the Solar Inverter business as currently configured required a review of our strategic alternatives to capitalize on its strong product portfolio and customer relationships,” he added.
The company said in a statement that it would make no further comment on the unit until a decision had been taken. It also stressed that there was no guarantee that a sale was imminent.
AE has been losing market share recently, according to IHS data, as a number of Asian manufacturers have muscled out European and American competitors.
AE has recently come under pressure from financial analysts to consider exiting the PV inverter market as it has struggled to increase sales, despite the introduction of a new central inverter and the acquisition of string inverter firm, REFUsol in 2013.
The company had also undertaken a major restructuring and relocation of inverter production to China to reduce manufacturing costs and become more competitive in the market.
Part of the problem has been that AE’s solar PV inverter sales have declined 19.4% sequentially to US$52 million in the last quarter, this despite a booming US PV market.
Management had noted in its last earnings conference call that its sales decline was due to customers delaying PV power plant projects, due to the US anti-dumping case.
However, it was somewhat of a baptism of fire for the new CEO in the last earnings call as financial analysts fired a salvo of tough questions over its continued poor performance in the PV sector, repeatedly asking in one way or another if it was better to exit the PV inverter market.
