OREANDA-NEWS. March 12, 2012. Igor Maslov has been appointed DTEK's Electricity Distribution and Sales Director. After joining the company in 2005, Mr Maslov has been responsible for the operation of electricity supplying companies, at first as Head of Electricity Distribution Department and later as Deputy Electricity Generation and Sales Director.

 “DTEK's energy supplying enterprises have already become sector leaders in terms of losses in electricity networks and settlements with the Wholesale Electricity Market. The investment programs, including programs on electricity networks preparation for EURO-2012, were 100% fulfilled in 2011. One of the biggest challenges at the moment is to integrate the newly acquired companies, establish an integral function for distribution and sales and implement the programs aimed at increased operational efficiency and improved quality of services provided to consumers,” Igor Maslov said.

 “DTEK is rapidly growing and acquiring electricity generation, distribution and supply companies. We believe that the energy market of Ukraine is on the threshold of large-scale reforms. Their implementation will introduce European principles of the market operation and fully realize the potential of DTEK’s vertically integrated business. Reliability remains a key performance measurement for electricity transmission and supply companies. I am confident that the experience of Mr Maslov will help us to render high quality, reliable and convenient services to our consumers in line with European standards,” Maxim Timchenko, DTEK's CEO, said.
