ContourGlobal appoints ex-Enel Green Power boss as CEO

London-based thermal and renewable power generator ContourGlobal Ltd said on Monday that it has appointed Antonio Cammisecra as its CEO.

Cammisecra’s appointment became effective on February 2. He succeeds Joseph C. Brandt, who led ContourGlobal for 17 years.

Hailing from Italian utility Enel SpA (BIT:ENEL), Cammisecra brings over two decades of experience in the energy sector, most recently leading Enel Grids' 2.2 million km power distribution network and spearheading Enel Green Power's growth into a renewables giant.

In his new role, he will steer ContourGlobal's investment strategy towards decarbonisation, focusing on renewables and transitioning thermal assets to lower carbon solutions.

“This is a global trend that I have long been engaged with throughout my career. I look forward to working with the talented management team, my new colleagues, and KKR, a shareholder with an impressive track record of energy and renewables investing that brings a long-term view and is helping to accelerate the energy transition within the Company's portfolio,” Cammisecra said.
