Supervisory board replaces Energoatom's acting board chairman
(expanded, text added after paragraph 2)
On September 22, the supervisory board of JSC NNEGC Energoatom made a decision to replace the acting chairman and member of the company's management board, Pavlo Kovtoniuk, with Oleksandr Ostapovets. This move was made to ensure leadership during the transitional period as the new permanent management board prepares for the upcoming heating season and continues operations under martial law.
Oleksandr Ostapovets, newly appointed acting chairman, will be responsible for maintaining stable management of the company, ensuring the proper implementation of the supervisory board's decisions, and facilitating an orderly transition to the new permanent leadership. The supervisory board expressed their loss of confidence in Kovtoniuk's ability to effectively lead the company, particularly during this critical period.
The board emphasized the importance of effective implementation of decisions, clear managerial accountability, and adherence to proper corporate governance principles as fundamental requirements for Energoatom's executive leadership. To appoint the new chairman, the supervisory board selected Naftogazvydobuvannia head Yurii Tkachuk, while former head of Rivne NPP, Pavlo Pavlyshyn, was chosen as the management board member for nuclear safety and operations.
Both candidates are currently undergoing the necessary regulatory and corporate procedures to officially begin their duties.
In the meantime, the supervisory board has intensified its oversight of the company's management and the execution of its decisions until the transition to the new leadership is finalized.
