Intelligent Energy Appoints New CFO, CEO for Subsidiary
15 Feb 2012
Intelligent Energy has announced the appointment of Rian Urding as Chief Executive Officer of its subsidiary company, IE Low Emission Vans Limited. This joint venture company, of which Intelligent Energy is a majority shareholder, is focused on bringing to market a low emission delivery vehicle. Rian moves from his previous role as Chief Financial Officer at Intelligent Energy, where he oversaw a substantial growth in the business.
IE Low Emission Vans Limited, through its US based subsidiary company, Emerald Automotive, will design and manufacture an all new, light weight, low emission delivery vehicle, planned for global distribution beginning in 2014. Rian will also join the Emerald Automotive management team, which has a wealth of experience in bringing low-volume vehicles to market, as CFO and Board Director.
Taking over from Rian as CFO of Intelligent Energy is John Maguire. He joins the company from Etisalat Nigeria, one of four national mobile operators in that country, where his responsibilities included the negotiation and delivery of a national 3G licence. He was previously CFO at THUS Group Plc, and worked in a number of senior positions, including as Vice President Japan and Asia, at Cable and Wireless before its acquisition of THUS.
Intelligent Energy has recently announced that it will be forming a new joint venture company with the Suzuki Motor Corporation, bringing its proprietary fuel cell and hydrogen generation technology to the partnership.
