US EditionTennessee Valley Authority, the nation’s largest public utility, appoints a new CEO
- Don Moul was appointed CEO of the Tennessee Valley Authority on Monday, April 9, replacing Jeff Lyash who had announced his retirement plans for no later than September.
- The appointment of Moul occurred after criticism from Republican lawmakers and less than a week after former President Trump removed a TVA board member, Michelle Moore, an appointee of former President Biden.
- Moul, who has served as TVA's executive vice president and chief operating officer since June 2021, brings 38 years of experience in power generation and operations, including extensive nuclear expertise.
- Moul's base salary will be $1.2 million, with the potential to earn an additional $2.45 million based on performance, while outgoing CEO Lyash's total compensation topped $10.5 million in 2024, which included pension and performance incentives.
- Moul stated that TVA needs a steady hand and that he intends to continue investing in new generation, strengthening the grid, and enhancing system reliability, as TVA faces a historic moment regarding the nation's energy security and works towards constructing a small modular reactor.
