Among
the
world’s
10
largest
makers
of
solar
inverters,
Satcon
has
struggled
recently
against
rumours
of
ineffective
management
and
quality
issues
–
helping
fuel
a
more
than
92%
crumbling
of
its
share
price
since
the
beginning
of
the
year.
The
relentless
beating
its
share
price
has
taken
has
left
the
company
with
a
market
capitalisation
of
less
than
$7m,
making
it
difficult
to
dredge
up
new
sources
of
finance.
“This
has
been
a
difficult
time
for
Satcon,”
says
chief
executive
Steve
Rhoades.
The
company
hopes
to
continue
operating
as
normal
during
the
bankruptcy
proceedings.
