Ivan Geliukh appointed CEO of DRI

Green Forum
DRI, the EU renewable energy division of Ukrainian energy company DTEK, has appointed Ivan Geliukh as its new CEO, succeeding John Stuart, who led the company for nearly three years.

During his tenure, Stuart played a key role in expanding DRI's presence in core markets including Croatia, Italy, Poland, and Romania. Under his leadership, DRI grew its renewable energy and battery storage portfolio to 1.4GW and built a team of nearly 100 experts across six offices.

Geliukh, who takes over as CEO, expressed enthusiasm about his new role: “I am excited to lead DRI, one of DTEK's fastest-growing subsidiaries, with its mission to provide clean energy and storage solutions across Europe. I'd like to thank John for his outstanding leadership, which has positioned DRI for a bright future. I look forward to building on this success and expanding our capacity in core markets by 2030, while exploring new opportunities across Europe.”

Geliukh joins DRI from DTEK's pan-European trading business, D.Trading, where he had served as CEO since 2022.
