Solar energy company Solarcentury has appointed a new chief executive officer. Derry Newman, former managing director of Sony UK, will replace Jeremy Leggett in the role.

He said: 鈥淎 dual CEO/chairman role is too broad for a company that is expanding as rapidly as Solarcentury.鈥�

Newly appointed Derry Newman added: 鈥淏y splitting the leadership in this way, we will maximise our chances of delivering a world-class business that can achieve the vision shared by the wider Solarcentury team and its investors.鈥�
