About the company
Founded in 2005, FREQCON GmbH is one of Germany’s leading manufacturers of frequency converters and control systems for renewable energy systems, and a provider of energy storage solutions.
The task
The company should be sold as part of an orderly succession plan. Crucially, the aim was to find an investor who would preserve the company as a whole, support it on its growth trajectory, and provide professional assistance in further developing and expanding the organisation and the site.

What the client says about the project
Norbert Hennchen, Managing Director
„I am extremely pleased with the outcome of the transaction. I am delighted that with Premium Equity we have found an investor who has recognised the company’s potential and is willing to support and assist FREQCON’s growth and further development with expertise and capital. The retention and expansion of our staff and the site are very important to me, and I am glad that we will be taking the next step in the company’s development together. Without the professional support, advice, and guidance from KERN (Messrs. Greve/Bergmann), this outcome would not have been possible. I felt that I was in the best of hands throughout the entire process and even in critical situations, I always felt I had a top advisory team by my side. I thank both gentlemen for our time together and for the successful and swift closing of the deal.“
