On 27 October, the Annual General Meeting of APEx (Association of Power Exchanges) approved the composition of the Board of Directors for another term.
According to an adopted resolution, Piotr Listwoń, COO of Polish Power Exchange (TGE) will continue to serve as a member of the APEx Board (he has been filling in a vacancy since January 2021).
APEx is an international association that currently brings together 46 power exchanges from around the world.
The composition of the APEx Board of Directors for 2022, approved by a resolution at the General Meeting, remained unchanged. The following members will continue to hold their positions: Stu Bresler (PJM Interconnection, USA) as Chairman, and Piotr Listwoń (TGE, Poland), Ahmed Ali Al-Ebrahim (Gulf Cooperation Council Interconnection Authority, Saudi Arabia), Stephen Jay (Transpower New Zealand, New Zealand), Leonard Kula (IESO, Canada), Omer Haroon Malik (CPPA, Pakistan), Lina Masiuliene (Nord Pool, Lithuania), Lanny Nickell (Southwest Power Pool, USA), Cecilia Ines Maya Ochoa (XM, Colombia) and Daniel Wragge (European Energy Exchange, Germany) as board members.
“The year 2021 has been a time of challenge and completely new experience for the Polish energy market. The cooperation among representatives of institutions from all over the world is invaluable for me personally, as it offers the possibility to exchange views and practical tips for navigating my organisation through an intensive change process. It also provides insights on how power exchanges in individual countries around the world adapt their offering and activities to the changing expectations of the market and the global turn towards green transformation.
The Polish Exchange, thanks to the active engagement of the TGE Management Board members with the major industry associations, is already recognised not only in the region but also on an international scale. I hope that the next term will allow us to elevate our discussions to another level, create universal solutions for all APEx members, and perhaps establish business partnerships. Definitely, Polish Power Exchange has the necessary capabilities, experience and know how to become a leading voice, also abroad” said Piotr Listwoń, Vice President of TGE.
TGE has been a member of APEx since 2000. Piotr Listwoń, elected as a member of the Association’s Board in January 2021, is the second TGE representative to play this role. The extension of his mandate pursuant to the October resolution confirms the strong position of the Exchange and proves that TGE’s comprehensive, broad offering as well as secure and innovative solutions are appreciated not only in Europe but also worldwide.
The international association APEx was established to support the development of competitive electricity markets. Its overarching mission is to create a platform for the exchange of information, experience and good practices between its members. The organisation currently brings together 46 commodity and financial power exchanges from around the world.
