The Board of Directors of the Nawah Energy Company (Nawah), on Wednesday announced the appointment of Mark Reddemann as the company’s new Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Nawah is the joint venture operating company formed by the Emirates Nuclear Energy Corporation (ENEC), and the Korean Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO), in May 2016 to operate and maintain the four-unit Barakah Nuclear Energy Plant, located in Abu Dhabi.
Reddemann has been chosen to lead the Nawah team in finishing preparations to operate and maintain the plant at Barakah, including achieving full operational readiness and further enhancing the performance and capabilities of the organisation in keeping with the UAE’s commitment to the highest standards of safety, quality and security.
He brings 40 years of directly relevant nuclear and executive experience to his role at Nawah, as well as a demonstrated track record of building and leading high-performing, operations-focused teams and organizations.
In his previous tenure as Chief Executive Officer at Energy Northwest, he directed the operations of four electricity generating facilities in the state of Washington in the US. Prior to this, he held senior roles across a number of prominent nuclear energy companies and institutions.
