She will assume the role on or about September 1, 2025, bringing more than 25 years of leadership experience in the energy, technology, and industrial sectors.

A company ready to scale
Ensurge is currently finalizing its 28- and 43-layer batteries and will, in the coming months, focus heavily on monetizing its unique and patented microbattery technology. The appointment of a highly experienced leader with deep Silicon Valley ties shows that Ensurge is preparing to move from development to commercial execution.
Until now, Lars Eikeland has served as both CFO and CEO - a setup that has benefited the company during its growth phase. As Ensurge moves into commercial operations and prepares for industrial scaling, appointing a dedicated CEO demonstrates Ensurge's commitment to operational excellence, clear strategic leadership, and long-term value creation.
The Board is very pleased that Lars Eikeland will continue in his role as CFO. With over two years of experience at Ensurge, he provides continuity, extensive industrial knowledge, and strong financial management and control - all of which will be essential as the Company progresses to its next growth phase.
