Māris Kuņickis, Member of the Management Board of Latvenergo AS and Chief Operating Officer has decided to terminate his position in the Management Board from 5 October 2018 and continue his career in the energy sector outside Latvia.

As a Member of the Management Board of Latvenergo AS, M.

Among his achievements is the successful large-scale reconstruction of the Daugava HPPs, improving their efficiency. During his term of office as a Member of the Management Board, the reconstruction of Riga CHPP-2 was completed, which together with Riga CHPP-1 have proved themselves to be irreplaceable plants on the Baltic scale.

M. Kuņickis took an active part in the establishment of the foundations for liberalisation of the natural gas market in Latvia and its further development. For the first time, the supply of natural gas has been diversified using Klaipeda LNG, thus contributing to the competitiveness of Latvenergo.

M. Kuņickis has made his contribution to the environmental projects of the Group, initiating and implementing unprecedented activities in Latvia. The project aimed at the study of fish migration and natural replenishment possibilities in the Daugava River has been continuing for several years with the involvement of Latvian and foreign specialists. M. Kuņickis has also participated in nature conservation and protection projects outside his professional duties.

M. Kuņickis is soon expected to start work in the management of another energy company outside Latvia.
