Brevia Energy has appointed Dermot Nolan, former CEO of Ofgem, to its Advisory Board.
Dermot served as CEO of Ofgem, the UK energy regulator, from 2014-2020. Before that, he was head of the Commission for Regulation of Utilities, the Irish energy and water regulator, for over five years. As leader of two high-profile regulators for nearly 12 years, Dermot gave numerous media interviews as well as making many appearances before Parliamentary Committees. Since leaving Ofgem, he has advised organisations in the energy sector as well as serving as a non-executive director and pursuing academic interests.
This experience has given Dermot an almost unparalleled knowledge of how energy policy and regulatory decisions are made as well as an understanding of the business needs of energy companies. In particular, he has a deep understanding of the politics of energy and how organisations should deal with political and regulatory risk.
Dermot joins David Porter OBE and Angela Love on the Brevia Energy Advisory Board.
Brevia Energy, a dedicated division of Brevia Consulting, has a longstanding reputation for its expertise and experience in the Energy Sector. The Consultancy provides straightforward public affairs and public relations support.
David Beamer, Managing Director of Brevia Energy, said:
‘Dermot’s experience as CEO of Ofgem and his strong knowledge of energy regulation will be a major asset to our energy clients.’
Dermot Nolan said:
‘I was aware of Brevia’s work in the energy sector during my time at Ofgem and spoke at a number of their excellent roundtables that they organise with key stakeholders in the sector. I look forward to working with Brevia’s energy team and supporting their clients.’
