The Ministry of Economy, Environment and Agriculture, in collaboration with partners from the G7 countries, has announced that it will submit proposals for the government’s approval within a week regarding the new composition of the supervisory board of Joint Stock Company National Nuclear Energy Generating Company (JSC NNEGC) Ener. The ministry’s statement, released on its website, notes that the existing supervisory board is not involved in corruption, thereby reinforcing its integrity. This move is part of broader efforts to enhance governance and ensure compliance with international standards in the nuclear energy sector.
The announcement comes as part of a multinational initiative aimed at strengthening oversight and accountability in state-owned enterprises, particularly in critical infrastructure sectors such as energy. By involving G7 partners, the ministry signals a commitment to international cooperation and transparency. The proposed changes to the supervisory board are expected to bring in fresh perspectives and expertise, ensuring the board remains effective and aligned with national and international best practices.
While the current supervisory board is not implicated in any corruption, the ministry’s decision to form a new board reflects a proactive approach to governance reform. This is especially significant given the high stakes involved in nuclear energy operations, where transparency and accountability are paramount. The new board is anticipated to implement enhanced oversight mechanisms and ensure that all operations comply with the highest standards of safety and ethical conduct.
