Czech renewable energy and photovoltaic group Greenbuddies has appointed David Veselý as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective 1 July 2026. Veselý joins the company from ČEZ ESCO, where he led the division responsible for renewable energy projects.
The management change comes as Greenbuddies continues to expand its activities across European markets and broaden its focus beyond photovoltaic installations.
In his new role, Veselý will oversee the group’s day-to-day operations and support the development of its engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) activities in international markets. The company is currently active in several European countries and plans to strengthen its presence in Germany, Austria, Italy and the Nordic region.
Greenbuddies also intends to expand its activities in battery energy storage systems and develop additional energy-related services alongside its existing photovoltaic business.
Ondřej Vodsloň, who has led the company to date, will move into a new role focused on investment activities, project acquisitions, asset management and the development of the group’s energy portfolio.
According to Greenbuddies, the management transition is intended to support the next phase of the company’s growth strategy and international expansion.
Veselý brings experience from the Czech energy sector, having previously managed renewable energy projects at ČEZ ESCO, a company active in decentralised energy solutions, energy efficiency and sustainable infrastructure projects for businesses and public-sector clients.
Commenting on his appointment, Veselý said he sees opportunities in the development of battery storage projects and new energy services as demand grows for solutions supporting energy independence and long-term sustainability.
The appointment reflects a broader trend across the European energy sector, where companies involved in renewable energy generation, storage and related infrastructure are increasingly strengthening management teams as investment activity accelerates. Growing demand for renewable power, energy storage and decentralised energy systems continues to create opportunities for specialised developers and service providers across European markets.
Greenbuddies has been expanding its operations in recent years through the delivery of photovoltaic projects and related energy infrastructure. The company is now seeking to build on that position through further geographic expansion and diversification of its service offering.
