Minergie: New managing director
The Minergie Association has appointed Andreas Meyer Primavesi as its new Managing Director. The 38-year-old from Basel will take over the management of operational business as of January 1, 2016 from Christian Röthenmund, who had held the post since 2013.
Andreas Meyer Primavesi (Forsting. ETH Zurich, MBA IESE Barcelona) has been responsible for the areas of certification and technology and communication with the cantons on the Minergie Executive Board. As of January 1, 2016, he will also take over the operational management of the association as Managing Director.
In his career to date, Andreas Meyer has been responsible, among other things, for setting up and operating the service center in the national building renovation program and sustainable site developments.
The Minergie Board of Directors approved the updated business plan at the same time as the election of the new Executive Director. At the beginning of 2017, the three building standards Minergie, Minergie-P and Minergie-A will be revised with the involvement of the cantons. As proposed at the 2015 General Meeting, this will also ensure their conformity with the MuKEn 2014. Minergie intends to provide information on the contents of the new strategy and further organizational adjustments in the first quarter of 2016. (ah)
