NV Energy Announces Departure of CFO William Rogers

NV Energy, Inc. announced that William D. Rogers has resigned as Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, and that E. Kevin Bethel, 46, current Chief Accounting Officer and Controller, will serve as interim CFO until a permanent successor is named. Before joining NV Energy in November 2007, Bethel was Assistant Controller for American Electric Power in Columbus, Ohio.

 

Michael Yackira, NV Energy President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "On behalf of the board and senior management team, I want to thank Bill for his many contributions over the past five years. He has helped us to position the Company for long-term success and we wish him well in his future endeavors." Yackira added, "I am delighted Kevin Bethel has agreed to work with the team and me in the interim role as we work to identify the right person with the right experience to fill that position on a permanent basis."

 

Said Yackira, "We believe we are on track in the execution of our strategy and are successfully positioned to capitalize on a slowly improving economy. Among other things, we are continuing to expand our renewable energy portfolio, which includes a recent agreement to develop Great Basin Transmission, a high-voltage transmission line that will allow us to bring renewable energy from the northern part of the state to the south for the first time."
