NYSEG gets new president
Elmira Star Gazette, December 7, 2009
Iberdrola SA, the Spanish owner of New York State Electric & Gas and Rochester Gas and Electric, said Monday it has named Mark Lynch president of NYSEG and RG&E.
Iberdrola also said it is changing the name of RG&E and NYSEG's U.S. parent company from Energy East Corp. to Iberdrola USA.
Iberdrola, of Bilbao, Spain, bought Energy East in September 2008 for $4.5 billion.
Iberdrola said Lynch was president and CEO of the New York Independent System Operator, the state's power grid manager, from 2005 to 2008.
Lynch succeeds James Laurito, who left RG&E and NYSEG in August and subsequently was named president of Central Hudson Gas and Electric Corp. in Poughkeepsie.
