At a late-night meeting of the supervisory board of the National Energy Company "Ukrenergo" on September 2, the majority of the board members—4 out of 6—voted to dismiss Volodymyr Kudrytskyi, the head of Ukrenergo.

Oleksiy Brekh, a member of the board responsible for developing the electricity transmission network, was appointed as the acting head. According to the company's charter, the supervisory board must now conduct a competition to select a new leader.

Even if this competition takes place, the initiators of the dismissal will find it easy to bring in their own people. Several candidates for the position of head of Ukrenergo have already been interviewed at the Presidential Office, including Oleksandr Gava, the head of the state exchange Operator of the Market, Dmytro Olefir, the head of the supervisory board of this exchange, and Artem Nekrasov, the head of the state enterprise Guaranteed Buyer.
