The state-owned Bulgarian Energy Holding has appointed a new director of the Kozloduy NPP, the only Bulgarian nuclear power plant, after the acting CEO sought a release for health reasons.
The Bulgarian Energy Holding (BEH) announced Monday that Kostandin Dimitrov, the acting CEO of the only Bulgarian nuclear plant, asked to be dismissed on September 2, 2011.
He was discharged as Kozloduy NPP CEO and member of the Board of the Directors of the plant at the very end of last week, the holding said.
On September 12, Monday, BEH appointed Alexander Nikolov as CEO of the Kozloduy plant, who had already been a Board member; Mitko Yankov was appointed a member of the board in the place of Kostadin Dimitrov.
The new CEO of the Kozloduy NPP, Alexander Nikolov, was born in 1962. He is a graduate of the Sofia Technical University with a degree in thermal and nuclear energy.
He has worked at the Kozloduy plant since 1986, climbing up the company ladder – reaching consecutively director positions at several departments in the plant between 2001 and 2011.
Nikolov also has completed specializations in Spain, Germany, Japan, and the USA.
The new Kozloduy Board member Mitko Yankov was born in 1950. He is a graduate of the Moscow Energy Institute, and joined the team of the Kozloduy NPP in 1975, reaching a department director position in 2000.
